Abstract
On screening, 1-butylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate [Hbim]BF4 was found to be the best ionic liquid for the Friedlander heteroannulation reaction. The reactions proceed very well under relatively mild conditions without any added catalyst. The ionic liquid acts as a promoter for this regiospecific synthesis and can be recycled.
