Abstract: A new series of guanidinium cation-based room temperature ionic liquids (RTILS) was prepared by treating tetraalkylguanidine with an alkylating agent in the presence of an alkaline reagent and a phase transfer catalyst(PTC).Good results were obtained when GPF6 was used as the reaction medium for the selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol with sodium hypochlorite as the oxidant.

Key words: Ionic Liquid, Hexaalkylguanidinium, Oxidation, Benzyl alcohol
