In this study, imidazolium based ionic liquids with different functional group were chemically tethered to silica support and resulted in silica supported solid ionic liquids phases (SILPs). The SILPS were characterized using CHNS elemental analysis, Fourier Transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, s...
