Abstract Application of ionic liquids (organic salts that are liquid at ambient temperatures) as solvents for atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of acrylic monomers is described. Ionic liquids dissolve several inorganic and organic compounds, are highly polar and non‐volatile. It has been shown that their application as solvents in ATRP of acrylates allows the reduction of side‐reactions when compared against bulk polymerizations. When chiral ionic liquid was used as a solvent a small but clear effect on polymer tacticity was observed. Copyright © 2003 Society of Chemical Industry
