Description
1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulphonate is a high-purity ionic liquid (min. 99 %) intended for laboratory solvent work and greener process chemistry. It carries CAS number 174899-66-2 and empirical formula C₉H₁₅F₃N₂O₃S, with a molar mass of 288,28 g/mol and a density of 1,295 g/cm³. The product is Built on the 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium cation paired with the trifluoromethanesulphonate (triflate) anion, it offers a defined ionic medium with low vapour pressure for applications that benefit from non-volatile, thermally robust solvents. Researchers use such ionic liquids as alternative reaction media, electrolytes or extraction phases when reducing conventional VOC solvents is a priority. This grade comes from manufacturer Carl ROTH in the green-alternatives solvent portfolio, providing a clear purity specification for reproducible laboratory use.
This article belongs on Photometers & spectrophotometers, in Spectroscopy & photometry.

Questions about 1-Butyl-3-methyl-imidazolium-, triflluoromethanesulphonate, min. 99 %, 25 g
What is this article?
1-Butyl-3-methyl-imidazolium-, triflluoromethanesulphonate, min. 99 %, 25 g is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Photometers & spectrophotometers, inside Spectroscopy & photometry, in Lab instruments.
A photometer reads absorbance at one or a few wavelengths. A spectrophotometer scans or selects many. Both send light through a cuvette or a well. The wavelength range, UV or visible, and the bandwidth decide what can be measured. A visible-only instrument cannot read a nucleic acid at 260 nm.
A photometer or spectrophotometer sends light through a sample and reads how much was absorbed. In the range where the Beer–Lambert relation holds, absorbance tracks concentration. A refractometer reads how a liquid bends light, which tracks dissolved solids. A polarimeter reads the rotation of polarised light, the classical measurement for sugars. The lamp, the wavelength and the cuvette path length are the three things that have to be right before the number means anything. The optical quantities trace to NIST and the BIPM.
