Ionic liquid as the name suggests are salts having +ve and -ve ions in it with have weak interaction between its ions within the system, makes the salts to exist as liquid at room temperature.
Ionic liquid are polar and are used as solvent in a large number of reactions.

The organics from the reaction are extracted into the organic solvent while leaving the ionic liquid unchanged in the flask.
