Nine ionic liquids containing pyridinium, pyrrolidinium and piperidinium cations with anion bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide were synthesized to investigate the ability of ionic liquids to extract silver, palladium, or gold metal ions from water at room temperature. Results are reported for distrib...
