Reaction Steps

The 1,3-diisobutylimidazolium bromide product was dissolved in deionized water (10 mL water/1 mmol salt) in a polyethylene plastic bottle. To the solution, Bio-Rad AG 1-X8 ion-exchange resin (1.1 g resin/mmol salt) was added and the slurry-like mixture was gently stirred overnight. The exchange solution was filtered and a small aliquot of the filtrate was titrated with 0.1N HCl to indicate the exchange yielded 89% of the desired 1,3-diisobutylimidazolium hydroxide product.
