Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main" xml:lang="en"> <title>Abstract</title> <p>A systematic investigation of the major impurities content as well as of their effect on the electrochemical behavior of synthesized <italic>N</italic>‐butyl‐<italic>N</italic>‐methylpyrrolidinium (Py_1.4), <italic>N</italic>‐(2‐methoxyethyl)‐<italic>N</italic>‐methylpyrrolidinium (Py_1.102) and 1‐butyl‐3‐methylimidazolium (bmim) bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide has been carried out and the efficacy of an optimized multistep purification protocol for obtaining ILs suitable for electrochemical applications has been verified.</p> </abstract>
