• ][20][21][22][23][24]. The reaction scheme for the model reaction is given in Scheme 1. This reaction was chosen for several reasons: Due to the low boiling point of the ester (32 °C) kinetic measurements in traditional equipment are limited to an upper temperature of about 25 °C, otherwise the vapor

• pressure would lead to loss of reactant in an open system. Measurements at temperatures higher than 32 °C are not possible at all. The progress of the reaction can be measured easily online by determining the electrical conductivity of the reaction mixture leaving the reactor. Electrical conductivity is

• volatile organic solvents that have broader environmental concerns.[3] These drawbacks have been well documented and have driven, in part, the quest for alternative solvent systems. Ionic liquids possess several attractive properties such as, no measurable vapor pressure, nonflammable, water and air
