Our non-ionic liquid is as nonpolar as chloroform, according to measurements using Nile Red as solvatochromic dye (see supplementary information), whereas the liquid under CO2 is as polar as dimethylformamide or propanoic acid. The polarity changes in this switchable solvent system are demonstrated by testing the solubility of decane, a nonpolar compound, in each liquid: it is miscible with the liquid under N2 but not with that under CO2 (Fig.
