General description

1-Hexyl-3-methylimidazolium iodide is a room temperature ionic liquid (RTIL) that can be prepared by reacting 1-methylimidazole with 1-iodohexane.

Application

The addition of HMImI to the electrolyte used in dye-sensitized nanocrystalline TiO2 solar cells increases its open-circuit photovoltage.
