Unlike most other electron donor–acceptor (EDA) molecules, aminochalcones exhibit unusual solvent polarity-dependent fluorescence behavior. The photophysical behavior of two aminochalcones, namely, 4-aminochalcone (AC) and 4-dimethylaminochalcone (DMAC), has been studied in a viscous room-temperature ionic liquid (IL), 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate, [bmim][PF6], by steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence techniques. The observation of a single emission band in viscous IL, which is similar to the one observed in less viscous polar conventional solvents, suggests no twisting is necessary for the formation of the charge-transfer state from which the emission of aminochalcones originates. The fluorescence decay profiles, solvation dynamics, and excitation-wavelength-dependent emission behavior of AC are found to be quite different from those of DMAC in the IL. The observed difference is attributed to specific H-bonding interaction between AC and [bmim][PF6].

The polymerisation reaction of pyrrole and 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene using the chemical oxidant FeCl3·6H2O in the room temperature ionic liquid butyl-methylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (C4mpyrTFSI) has been investigated using cyclic voltammetry, UV/vis and IR spectroscopy. The voltammetric data for the Fe2+/3+ reaction is complicated by the presence of H+ introduced upon dissolution of the iron salt by deprotonation of the coordinated waters. The voltammetric and chemical reaction studies show that H+ itself, introduced to solution as trifluoromethanesulfonic acid (HTFSI), can act as the chemical oxidant for the polymerisation reaction. Voltammetric data also implies that in this system the Fe2+/3+ redox couple may not actually be involved in the polymerisation reaction and that the H+ introduced upon dissolution of the FeCl3·6H2O may be the sole cause of the oxidation reaction.
