Abstract Several new chiral imidazolinium ionic liquids (CILs) have been synthesized by using optically pure dehydroabietic acid (DA) as the chiral precursor. Their enantiomeric recognition abilities were measured using rac-mandelic acid n-Bu4N salt as the substrate by NMR spectroscopy. Based on the structure-interaction relationships, the bulky anion and the side chain linking the DA group to the imidazole ring have crucial effects on CIL recognition. The 1H NMR measurements indicated that [MimMeDA]NTf2 exhibits good and versatile molecular recognition ability. The new DA-based CILs reported here may be interesting chiral media for enantioselective reactions and useful in enantiomeric separations.
