Introduction

Over the pastthree decades, ionic liquids have emerged as a promising platform for various applications, such as solvents, electrolytes, functional materials, and so on, primarily due to their structural diversity and versatile designability [1]. The number of possible ionic liquids was estimated to be as high as 1018, based on the nearly limitless combinations of ions and functional groups [2]. However, many of the so-called ionic liquids are very viscous and cannot be used as a liquid due to their massive molecular weights [3]. Generally, the constituent ions of an ionic liquid should have unsymmetrical structures and flexible groups to achieve a low melting point, and small ion sizes to cause low viscosity [4]. Imidazolium cations meet all these requirements, and hence the low-melting and low-viscosity imidazolium ionic liquids are one of the most popular and studied classes of the vast family of ionic liquids.

Thiazolium is a class of heteroaromatic cation, which is...
