利用红外光谱和拉曼光谱研究离子液体结构与相互作用的进展

热力学实验、理论计算以及计算机模拟是离子液体微观结构与相互作用研究中常用的三种手段,但是目前采用这些手段对离子液体结构的认识尚处于初步探索阶段,还没有完全找到离子液体性质随结构变化的规律,尚未完全能够对离子液体进行"设计",这也使得对离子液体的进一步开发和应用受到极大的限制.近年来,谱学方法成为研究溶液结构的重要手段.其中,红外光谱(IR)和拉曼光谱(Raman)等谱学手段在离子液体的结构与相互作用研究中发挥着越来越重要的作用.本文着重概述了红外光谱和拉曼光谱在纯离子液体及离子液体混合溶液结构与相互作用方面的研究进展、挑战以及发展方向.

Carbon dioxide capture by aminoalkyl imidazolium-based ionic liquid: a computational investigation

Efficient technologies/processes for CO(2) capture are greatly desired, and ionic liquids are recognized as promising materials for this purpose. However, the mechanisms for selectively capturing CO(2) by ionic liquids are unclear. In this study, the interactions between CO(2) and 1-n-amino-alkyl-3-methyl-imidazolium tetrafluoroborate, an amino imidazolium ionic liquid (AIIL), in its CO(2) capturing process, are elucidated with both quantum chemistry and molecular dynamics approaches on the molecular level. The effects of the straight aminoalkyl chain length in imidazolium-based cations on CO(2) capture are explored, and thereby the factors governing CO(2) capture for this ionic liquid family, e.g., ionic liquid structure, charge distribution, intermolecular interactions, thermodynamic properties and absorption kinetics, are analyzed. Molecular dynamics simulations are used to study the diffusion of the involved compounds and liquid structures of the CO(2)-AIIL systems. The results show that the amino-alkyl chain length plays an important role in governing the absorption properties of AIILs, including the free energies of absorption, equilibrium constants, desorption temperature, absorption rate constants, diffusion coefficients, and organization of CO(2) around cations and anions. This study provides useful information about rational design of ionic liquids for efficient CO(2) capture.     

Room temperature ionic liquids containing low water concentrations-a molecular dynamics study

We have performed classical molecular dynamics to study the properties of a water-miscible and a water-immiscible room-temperature ionic liquid when mixed with small quantities of water. The two ionic liquids consist of the same 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium ([EMIM]) cation combined with either the boron tetrafluoride ([BF(4)]) or bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([NTf(2)]) anion. It is found that, in both ionic liquids, water clusters of varying sizes are typically hydrogen bonded to two anions with the cation playing a minor role. We also highlight the difficulties of obtaining dynamic quantities such as self-diffusion coefficients from simulations of such viscous systems.     

Ionic liquids in confined geometries

Over recent years the Surface Force Apparatus (SFA) has been used to carry out model experiments revealing structural and dynamic properties of ionic liquids confined to thin films. Understanding characteristics such as confinement induced ion layering and lubrication is of primary importance to many applications of ionic liquids, from energy devices to nanoparticle dispersion. This Perspective surveys and compares SFA results from several laboratories as well as simulations and other model experiments. A coherent picture is beginning to emerge of ionic liquids as nano-structured in pores and thin films, and possessing complex dynamic properties. The article covers structure, dynamics, and colloidal forces in confined ionic liquids; ionic liquids are revealed as a class of liquids with unique and useful confinement properties and pertinent future directions of research are highlighted.     

On the computation and contribution of conductivity in molecular ionic liquids

In this study we present the results of the molecular dynamics simulation of the ionic liquids: 1-butyl-3-methyl-imidazolium tetrafluoroborate and trifluoromethylacetate as well as 1-ethyl-3-methyl-imidazolium dicyanamide. Ionic liquids are characterized by both a molecular dipole moment and a net charge. Thus, in contrast to a solution of simple ions in a (non-) polar solvent, rotational and translational effects influence the very same molecule. This study works out the theoretical framework necessary to compute the conductivity spectrum and its low frequency limit of ionic liquids. Merging these computed conductivity spectra with previous simulation results on the dielectric spectra of ionic liquids yields the spectrum of the generalized dielectric constant, which may be compared to experiments. This spectrum was calculated for the three ionic liquids over six orders of magnitude in frequency ranging from 10 MHz to 50 THz. The role of rotation and translation and their coupling term on the generalized dielectric constant is discussed in detail with a special emphasis on the zero-frequency limit. Thereby, the frequency dependence of the cross correlation between the collective rotational dipole moment and the current is discussed.     

The effect of C2 substitution on melting point and liquid phase dynamics of imidazolium based-ionic liquids: insights from molecular dynamics simulations

Using molecular dynamics simulations, the melting points and liquid phase dynamic properties were studied for four alkyl-imidazolium-based ionic liquids, 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([BMIM][PF6]), 1-n-butyl-2,3-dimethylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([BMMIM][PF6]), 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([EMIM][PF6]), and 1-ethyl-2,3-dimethylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([EMMIM][PF6]), respectively. Experimentally it has been observed that the substitution of a methyl group for a hydrogen at the C2 position of the cation ring leads to an increase in both the melting point and liquid phase viscosity, contrary to arguments that had been made regarding associations between the ions. The melting points of the four ionic liquids were accurately predicted using simulations, as were the trends in viscosity. The simulation results show that the origin of the effect is mainly entropic, although enthalpy also plays an important role.     

Nanostructural organization in ionic liquids

Nanometer-scale structuring in room-temperature ionic liquids is observed using molecular simulation. The ionic liquids studied belong to the 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium family with hexafluorophosphate or with bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)amide as the anions, [C(n)mim][PF(6)] or [C(n)mim][(CF(3)SO(2))(2)N], respectively. They were represented, for the first time in a simulation study focusing on long-range structures, by an all-atom force field of the AMBER/OPLS_AA family containing parameters developed specifically for these compounds. For ionic liquids with alkyl side chains longer than or equal to C(4), aggregation of the alkyl chains in nonpolar domains is observed. These domains permeate a tridimensional network of ionic channels formed by anions and by the imidazolium rings of the cations. The nanostructures can be visualized in a conspicuous way simply by color coding the two types of domains (in this work, we chose red = polar and green = nonpolar). As the length of the alkyl chain increases, the nonpolar domains become larger and more connected and cause swelling of the ionic network, in a manner analogous to systems exhibiting microphase separation. The consequences of these nanostructural features on the properties of the ionic liquids are analyzed.     

Transport properties of room-temperature ionic liquids from classical molecular dynamics

Room-temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) have attracted much attention in the scientific community in the past decade due their novel and highly customizable properties. Nonetheless, their high viscosities pose serious limitations to the use of RTILs in practical applications. To elucidate some of the physical aspects behind transport properties of RTILs, extensive classical molecular dynamics calculations are reported. Here, in particular, bulk viscosities and ionic conductivities of butyl-methyl-imidazole based RTILs are presented over a wide range of temperatures. The dependence of the properties of the liquids on simulation parameters, e.g., system-size effects or the choice of the interaction potential, is analyzed in detail.
