Bioderived Ionic Liquids and Salts with Various Cyano Anions as Precursors for Doped Carbon Materials.

ABSTRACT: Carbohydrate moieties were combined with various cross-linkable anions (thiocyanate [SCN], tetracyanoborate [TCB], tricyanomethanide [TCM], and dicyanamide [DCA]) and investigated as precursors for the synthesis of nitrogen-doped and nitrogen-/sulfur-co-doped carbons. The influence of the molecular structures of the precursors on their thermophysical properties and the properties of the derived carbon materials was elucidated and compared to petroleum-derived analogs. A carbohydrate-based ionic liquid featuring an [SCN] anion yielded more carbon residues upon carbonization than its 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium analog, and the resulting dual-doping of the derived carbon material translated to enhanced catalytic activity in the oxygen reduction reaction.

Controlling the elasticity of polyacrylonitrile fibers <i>via</i> ionic liquids containing cyano-based anions.

Project description:As the predominant precursor for high-performance carbon fiber manufacturing, the fabrication of polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-based composite fibers attracts great interest. Ionic liquids (ILs) have recently been investigated for melt-spinning of ultrafine PAN fibers. The plasticizing properties of ILs are significantly affected by the structure of ILs and can be influenced by electronegativity, steric effects, etc. Herein, we report a facile strategy to control the elasticity of the PAN/ILs fibers by tuning the anion structure of ILs. Particularly, the ILs containing nitrile-rich groups exhibited enhanced plasticizing effect and nucleating ability on dissolving PAN components, achieving highly stretchable PAN/ILs fibers.

Viscoelastic Properties of Water-Absorbed Poly(methyl methacrylate) Doped with Lithium Salts with Various Anions.

Project description:We investigated the effects of water absorption on the dynamic mechanical properties of poly(methyl methacrylate) doped with various generic lithium salts, such as lithium perchlorate trihydrate (LiClO4), lithium trifluoromethanesulfonate (LiCF3SO3), lithium nonafluorobutanesulfonate (LiC4F9SO3), and lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiN(CF3SO2)). The rates of weight change during water absorption of lithium salt-doped samples were higher in the following order: LiClO4, LiCF3SO3, LiC4F9SO3, and LiN(CF3SO2). Interestingly, the aforementioned order was the same as the order of the terminal relaxation times in the flow region of the viscoelastic measurement in the melting-state. This implies that the water absorption of the salt-doped PMMA occurs due to the factors that affect the pinning of the PMMA molecular chains in the places.

Conformational design concepts for anions in ionic liquids.

Project description:The identification of specific design concepts for the in silico design of ionic liquids (ILs) has been accomplished using theoretical methods. Molecular building blocks, such as interchangeable functional groups, are used to design a priori new ILs which have subsequently been experimentally investigated. The conformational design concepts are developed by separately and systematically changing the central (imide), bridging (sulfonyl) and end (trifluoromethyl) group of the bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide [N(Tf)2]- anion and examining the resultant potential energy surfaces. It is shown that these design concepts can be used to tune separately the minimum energy geometry, transition state barrier height and relative stability of different conformers. The insights obtained have been used to design two novel anions for ILs, trifluoroacetyl(methylsulfonyl)imide [N(Ms)(TFA)]- and acetyl(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide [N(Tf)(Ac)]-. The computationally predicted structures show excellent agreement with experimental structures obtained from X-ray crystallography. [C4C1im][N(Tf)(Ac)] and [C4C1im][N(Ms)(TFA)] ILs have been synthesised and ion diffusion coefficients examined using pulsed field gradient stimulated echo NMR spectroscopy. Significantly increased diffusion was observed for the more flexible [N(Tf)(Ac)]- compared with the more rigid [N(Ms)(TFA)]- analogue. Furthermore, a pronounced impact on the fluidity was observed. The viscosity of the IL with the rigid anion was found to be twice as high as the viscosity of the IL with the flexible anion. The design concepts presented in this work will enable researchers in academia and industry to tailor anions to provide ILs with specific desired properties.

Indium-Mediated Allylation of Carbonyl Compounds in Ionic Liquids: Effect of Salts in Ionic Liquids.

Project description:The In-mediated allylation of carbonyl compounds can be performed in various types of solvents including ionic liquids. However, we have found that in [bmim][BF?] (where bmim = 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium), the In-mediated coupling of crotyl bromide with benzaldehyde gives a complex mixture, and some additives, such as halides and amines, are crucial for the successful conversion to the corresponding ?-adduct. Instead, the addition of alcohols or water promotes the formation of the ?-adduct. An asymmetric induction with up to 62% enantiomeric excess (ee) was observed employing cinchonidine as an additive in a binary solvent consisting of an ionic liquid and dichloromethane.

Ionic Liquids Endowed with Novel Hybrid Anions for Supercapacitors.

Project description:The synthesis of a novel class of ionic liquids (ILs) with sulfimide-type anions is presented herein. [Py14][PTSNTF] (N-butyl-N-methylpyrrolidinium p-tosyl(trifluoromethyl)sulfonimide) shows that the maximal electrochemical window is as high as 5.3 V, higher than that of most reported ILs. In addition, thermogravimetry analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, and the flammability test were also carried out for its thermal stability and practical safety. Impressively, these ILs exhibited good flame resistance and demonstrated an admirable intrinsic safety, in sharp contrast to ordinary electrolytes. Furthermore, the electrostatic potential of ILs was calculated theoretically, and the distribution of surrounding charge is intuitively understood. Cyclic voltammetry, galvanostatic charge-discharge tests, and cycling stability measurement were performed to evaluate the potential as the electrolyte for supercapacitors. The insights obtained from the study of novel anions provide new ideas for the design of novel IL electrolytes for energy applications.

Tunning CO2 Separation Performance of Ionic Liquids through Asymmetric Anions.

Project description:This work aims to explore the gas permeation performance of two newly-designed ionic liquids, [C2mim][CF3BF3] and [C2mim][CF3SO2C(CN)2], in supported ionic liquid membranes (SILM) configuration, as another effort to provide an overall insight on the gas permeation performance of functionalized-ionic liquids with the [C2mim]+ cation. [C2mim][CF3BF3] and [C2mim][CF3SO2C(CN)2] single gas separation performance towards CO2, N2, and CH4 at T = 293 K and T = 308 K were measured using the time-lag method. Assessing the CO2 permeation results, [C2mim][CF3BF3] showed an undermined value of 710 Barrer at 293.15 K and 1 bar of feed pressure when compared to [C2mim][BF4], whereas for the [C2mim][CF3SO2C(CN)2] IL an unexpected CO2 permeability of 1095 Barrer was attained at the same experimental conditions, overcoming the results for the remaining ILs used for comparison. The prepared membranes exhibited diverse permselectivities, varying from 16.9 to 22.2 for CO2/CH4 and 37.0 to 44.4 for CO2/N2 gas pairs. The thermophysical properties of the [C2mim][CF3BF3] and [C2mim][CF3SO2C(CN)2] ILs were also determined in the range of T = 293.15 K up to T = 353.15 K at atmospheric pressure and compared with those for other ILs with the same cation and anion's with similar chemical moieties.

Competitive Effects of Anions on Protein Solvation by Aqueous Ionic Liquids.

Project description:The present study utilizes molecular dynamics simulations to examine how different anions compete for protein solvation in aqueous solutions of ionic liquids (ILs). Ubiquitin is used as model protein and studied in IL mixtures sharing the same cation, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium (EMIM), and two different anions in the same solution, from combinations of dicyanamide (DCA), chloride (Cl), nitrate (NO3), and tetrafluoroborate (BF4). Our findings reveal that specific interactions between anions and the protein are paramount in IL solvation, but that combinations of anions are not additive. For example, DCA exhibits a remarkable ability to form hydrogen bonds with the protein, resulting in a significantly stronger preferential binding to the protein than other anions. However, the combination of DCA with NO3, which also forms hydrogen bonds with the protein, results in a smaller preferential solvation of the protein than the combination of DCA with chloride ions, which are weaker binders. Thus, combining anions with varying affinities for the protein surface modulates the overall ion accumulation through nonadditive mechanisms, highlighting the importance of the understanding of competition for specific interaction sites, cooperative binding, bulk-solution affinity, and overall charge compensations, on the overall solvation capacity of the solution. Such knowledge may allow for the design of novel IL-based processes in biotechnology and material science, where fine-tuning protein solvation is crucial for optimizing performance and functionality.

Ionic Liquids with Benzenesulfonate Anions: Non-Fluorinated, Thermally Stable Anion Options.

Project description:Thermally resistant materials have been sought after for use as lubricants, heat transfer fluids, high temperature structural materials, and other applications where thermal stability is required or desired. Herein, we present a new class of thermally robust ionic liquids containing inexpensive benezenesulfonate anions with profound long-term, high-temperature aerobic stability - i.e., no mass loss in 96 hours at 300 °C in air. A coherent correlation between melting and glass transition temperatures and the location and type of the anions was observed. Our work indicates that these systems can be designed to form thermally stable, low-melting organic salts, providing valuable design insights for engineering of their structure-property-function relationships.

Physico-Chemical Properties of Magnetic Dicationic Ionic Liquids with Tetrahaloferrate Anions.

Project description:A series of imidazolium-based symmetrical and asymmetrical dicationic ionic liquids (DcILs) with alkyl spacers of different length and with [FeCl3 Br]- as counter ion have been synthesized. The synthesized DcILs are characterized by using FTIR and Raman spectroscopy as well as mass spectrometry, along with single-crystal XRD analysis. Physicochemical properties such as solubility, thermal stability and magnetic susceptibility are also measured. These compounds show low melting points, good solubility in water and organic solvents, thermal stability, and paramagnetism. The products of molar susceptibility and temperature (χmol ⋅T) for the synthesized DcILs have been found between 4.05 to 4.79 emu mol-1 K Oe-1 and effective magnetic moment values have also been determined to be compared to that expected from the spin-only approximation.

Coexistence of Tellurium Cations and Anions in Phosphonium-Based Ionic Liquids.

Project description:Elemental tellurium readily dissolves in ionic liquids (ILs) based on tetraalkylphosphonium cations even at temperatures below 100 °C. In the case of ILs with acetate, decanoate, or dicyanamide anions, dark red to purple colored solutions form. A study combining NMR, UV-Vis and Raman spectroscopy revealed the formation of tellurium anions (Ten )2- with chain lengths up to at least n=5, which are in dynamic equilibrium with each other. Since external influences could be excluded and no evidence of an ionic liquid reaction was found, disproportionation of the tellurium is the only possible dissolution mechanism. Although the spectroscopic detection of tellurium cations in these solutions is difficult, the coexistence of tellurium cations, such as (Te4 )2+ and (Te6 )4+ , and tellurium anions could be proven by cyclic voltammetry and electrodeposition experiments. DFT calculations indicate that electrostatic interactions with the ions of the ILs are sufficient to stabilize both types of tellurium ions in solution.
