Abstract
A synergistic effect in nucleophilic fluorination has been demonstrated for the molecular combination of an ionic liquid and a tert-alcohol. Consequently, these functionalized ILs not only increase the nucleophilic reactivities of the fluoride anion but also remarkably reduce the olefin byproduct.
