Friedel-Crafts Alkylation

Ionic liquids can be used as solvents in Friedel-Crafts alkylation reactions, which involve the generation of carbocations. For example, the reaction of an alkyl halide with an aromatic compound in the presence of a Lewis acid catalyst (e.g., AlCl3) can generate carbocations. Ionic liquids can serve as a reaction medium that can stabilize and solubilize these intermediates.
