Benefits of technology

[0008]Thus, the present inventors have made extensive study under considering the above situation to find surprisingly that an ionic liquid having remarkably low viscosity and excellent viscosity stability can be obtained by using a bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide anion as an anion seed in an ionic liquid using an organic cation selected from an imidazolium cation, a pyridinium cation, a quaternary ammonium cation and a quaternary phosphonium cation and this ionic liquid can suitably be used as a synthetic lubricating oil.
[0011]The ionic liquid and the ionic liquid composition used in the present invention are useful as lubricating oil which is excellent in anti-abrasion property and further has stable flowability, and viscosity characteristics required for lubricating oil, and still further has stable lubricating properties in a wide temperature range and a wide using condition.

Problems solved by technology

However, those lubricating oils are accompanied with a danger of flash ignition or evaporation under specific conditions such as high temperature and highly vacuum pressure, and thus more suitable lubricating oil has been desired.
However, it has been said that the ionic liquid comprising this combination of an anion is not sufficient in reduction of viscosity.

synthesis example 1

[0050]In a flask equipped with a refluxing column were charged 19.1 g (0.10 mol) of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide and 20 ml of water, and further 21.9 g (0.10 mol) of potassium salt of bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide, followed by stirring at 40° C. for 5 hours. After the reaction, 80 ml of methylene chloride was added, followed by well stirring and fractionating. The methylene chloride layer was washed five times each with 40 ml of water, and the methylene chloride layer is concentrated under reduced pressure to give 23.8 g (0.08 mol, yield: 81.8%) of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide.

synthesis example 2

[0051]The same procedure as the above Synthesis example 1 excepting using 20.5 g of 1-methyl-3-propylimidazolium bromide in place of 19.1 g of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide was conducted to give 27.5 g (0.09 mol, yield: 90.1%) of 1-methyl-3-propylimidazolium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide. Viscosity of this compound was 29 mPa·s (25° C.).

synthesis example 3

[0052]The same procedure as the above Synthesis example 1 excepting using 20.5 g of 1-methyl-3-isopropylimidazolium bromide in place of 19.1 g of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide was conducted to give 27.1 g (0.09 mol, yield: 88.8%) of 1-methyl-3-isopropylimidazolium bis(fluorosulfonyl) imide. Viscosity of this compound was 27 mPa·s (25° C.).
