Abstract
Brønsted acidic ionic liquids based on imidazolium cation were employed as a series of efficient and environmentally benign catalysts and solvents for the synthesis of salicylate, the yields could reach 76%-96%. The optimal reaction conditions were determined. The results showed that Brønsted acidic ionic liquids were efficient catalysts and solvents which could be recycled easily without obvious decline in catalytic activities.
