ability to be used as reaction media and antibacterial agents. These synergistic materials have been synthesized by the N-alkylation of pyrimidine, a precursor of nucleobases, with varied n-alkyl (C1–C10) halides followed by anion metathesis of the resulting pyrimidinium halides using the salt of the counter anions, tetrafluoroborate (BF4−) and bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)amide (NTf2−) in good to excellent
