Introduction

The organic salts comprising of sterically mismatched ions and also with relatively low melting point (generally below 100 °C) but excellent thermal stability are known as ionic liquids (ILs). In recent times, they are extensively used in different research fields; but historically these ILs are not very new. Although the first published review on room temperature ionic liquid (RTIL) came in the year of 1999 by Thomas Welton, the earliest RTIL, ethylammonium nitrate (EAN, [EtNH3][NO3]), was reported by Paul Walden in 1914. However, in India, Rây and Sen did excellent works and made significant contributions in this particular field since 1911. Besides the RTILs, the ILs having long alkyl hydrophobic chains and inherent amphiphilic characteristics are known as surface-active ionic liquids (SAILs). The structural dissection of the ILs reveals that most of the ILs containing imidazolium or pyrrolidinium head groups and long hydrophobic alkyl chains lead to their aggregation...
