The present ILs show lower densities, higher viscosities, and comparable values of refractive index compared to those of analogous nitrile-functionalized ILs with different anions. The thermal expansion coefficient, compressibility coefficient, and molar refraction were calculated from the experimental values of density and refractive index. These ILs show a weak temperature dependency of the thermal expansion coefficient. © 2014 American Chemical Society. %Z cited By 19
