The ionic liquid 1-butyl-3- methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([bmim]BF4) offered the best results in terms of yield of the products. It was observed that a homogeneous reaction medium proved beneficial for the yield of the reaction. %U http://www.benthamscience.com/open/tocatj/articles/V003/14TOCATJ.htm
