The ionic liquid based on the 1‐ n ‐butyl‐3‐methylimidazolium cation has been prepared and used as an efficient catalytic medum for the chemoselective thioacetalization of carbonyl compounds. Furthermore, recycling and reuse of this ionic liquid medium has been demonstrated. Moreover, the use of this catalytic medium not only avoids the generation of waste but also provides a green process with minimal hazards.
