Application

1-Methylpyrrolidine is extensively used in the synthesis of pyrrolidine based ionic liquids. Some of the other reported applications include:
  • Synthesis of ionic liquid electrolytes for primary Li/CFx batteries.
  • Preparation of ionic liquid as a reaction medium to carry out sulfuric acid-catalyzed conversion of alkynes to ketones.
  • MCM-47, a highly crystalline ferrierite layered silicate, can be synthesized using a diquaternary ammonium salt prepared from the reaction of 1-methylpyrrolidine with 1,4-dibromobutane.

Cyclic amines can be encapsulated in a water-soluble self-assembled supramolecular host upon protonation. The hydrogen-bonding ability of the cyclic amines, as well as the reduced degrees of rotational freedom, allows for the formation of proton-bound homodimers inside of the assembly

This paper describes a sweeping-micellar electrokinetic chromatography (sweeping-MEKC) technique for the determination of seven benzodiazepines, using, as sweeping carriers, the ionic liquid-type cationic surfactants 1-cetyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide (C(16)MIMBr) and N-cetyl-N-methylpyrrolidinium bromide (C(16)MPYB). These surfactants resemble the commonly employed cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium

MEKC and linear solvation free energy relationships (LSFERs) have been used to characterize the solute distribution between water and self-assemblies formed from ionic liquid type mono-chain cationic surfactants containing a cyclic pyrrolidinium head group.
