Biphasic and multiphasic processes have emerged as effective methods to reduce the amount of volatile organic solvents used in the manufacture of chemicals. In this article some of the research conducted in my laboratory in this domain utilizing ionic liquids is described. Other dimensions to our research interests in ionic liquids are also discussed including their conversion to porous nanomaterials.
