Polymerizations of vinyl and methacrylate monomers (2‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate, styrene, and methyl methacrylate) were carried out in a choline formate ionic liquid at room temperature without the addition of peroxide‐based initiators. Choline formate acted as both an initiator and a solvent and produced high‐molecular‐weight polymers. Gel permeation chromatography and electron paramagnetic resonance measurements indicated that the polymerizations predominantly occurred by a free‐radical mechanism. This method of polymerization provides an alternate route to eliminate the use of toxic initiators and solvents. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2011
