Outline of Final Research Achievements

A variety of functional ionic liquids containing cationic organometallic complexes and chelate complexes were synthesized. These liquids exhibited unique physical and chemical properties such as thermochromism, chemochromism, photoluminescence, and LCST properties. Ionic plastic crystals and coordination polymers related to these liquids were synthesized, and their structures and properties were elucidated.
