Cocrystal of an Ionic Liquid with Organic Molecules as a Mimic of Ionic Liquid Solution

The cocrystal of organic compound dissolved in the ionic liquid (1-methyl-3-n-butyl imidazolium
bromide) has been investigated for the first time using single crystal X-ray diffraction. The interactions between
ionic solvent and solute were examined. It was shown that the general features of supramolecular organization of
the solvent part remain the same as in the crystal of the pure ionic liquid.
