## Abstract **Summary:** Bacterial cellulose (BC), a unique type of cellulose, with high degree of polymerization of 6 500 could be dissolved easily in the ionic liquid 1‐__N__‐butyl‐3‐methylimidazolium chloride. For the first time, well‐soluble BC acetates and carbanilates of high degree of substi

## Abstract 1‐Alkyl‐3‐methylimidazolium‐based ionic liquids, having chloride as a counter ion, were studied for cellulose solubility; and the influence of different alkyl chain lengths was also investigated. The alkyl chain length was incrementally varied from ethyl to decyl to determine structure‐
## Abstract Deuterium isotopologues of the ionic liquid (IL) 1–__n‐__butyl‐3‐methylimidazolium chloride ([C~4~mim]Cl) sequentially labeled on the C‐1″, C‐1′, C‐2′, C‐3′, and C‐4′ positions of the __N__‐alkyl groups were prepared following a strategy that minimizes the number of distinct reactions t
## Abstract Anionic species formed in mixtures of 1‐n‐butyl‐3‐methylimidazolium chloride (BMICl) with different amounts of niobium pentachloride (NbCl~5~) or zinc dichloride (ZnCl~2~) were investigated by Raman spectroscopy. In the BMICl and NbCl~5~ ionic mixtures the presence of the anion NbCl~6~^
