Abstract
A brief review dealing with the application of ionic liquids as potential reaction media and catalytic systems in the synthesis of polymers is presented. The best known directions of polymer synthesis with the use of ionic liquids are described. Advantages of polymerization in ionic liquids in comparison with conventional solvents are demonstrated: high polymer yield, improved characteristics of polymers, simplicity of polymer isolation from the reaction medium.
