From 1994 to 2007, he was European Science Editor/Senior Correspondent for Chemical & Engineering News (C&EN) - the weekly news magazine of the American Chemical Society. Since 1994, he has written over 700 news reports and articles on chemistry, science, research, education, and science policy for C&EN. They include over 50 articles and news reports on ionic liquids. He is also the author or editor of some ten books on chemistry, including the A level chemistry textbook Chemistry in Action (Macmillan) and the GCE/CSE/16+ book Essential Science: Chemistry (Oxford University Press).
"If there ever was a case of a reporter becoming part of the story,
it would have to be Michael FreemantleÆs pivotal role in the growth
of the field now known as ionic liquids." Robin D.Rogers

"This well-crafted book by Freemantle is distinct from other recent
volumes on the subject. à FreemantleÆs book begins with a review of
IL synthesis and properties and then concisely describes the
diverse applications and merits of ILs in many à of the areas in
which they are currently used. This book is both scholarly and a
great read. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Lower-division
undergraduates through professionals."P. G. Heiden
