Infrared vibrational spectroscopy was used to probe concentration-dependent ion pair dissociation of imidazolium-based ionic liquids with three different halide anions (I−, Br−, and Cl−) in deuterated chloroform. Dissociation of the ion pairs at low concentrations of ionic liquids was found to be the easiest for ionic liquid with Cl− anion, the most electronegative anion among the three investigated. This anomalous trend of ion pair dissociation was explained in terms of varying interaction strength between the solvent (CDCl3) and the anions investigated. 相似文献
PEG1000-based dicationic acidic ionic liquid (PEG1000-DAIL) was found to be an efficient and recyclable catalyst for Mannich-type reaction of different ketones with various aromatic aldehydes and aromatic amines in water to give various β-arylamino ketones in good yields. The catalytic system could be easily recovered and reused for at least six runs only with slight decrease in its activity. 相似文献
Mesoscopic shear elasticity has been revealed in ordinary liquids both experimentally by reinforcing the liquid/surface interfacial energy and theoretically by nonextensive models. The elastic effects are here examined in the frame of small molecules with strong electrostatic interactions such as room temperature ionic liquids [emim][Tf2N] and nitrate solutions exhibiting paramagnetic properties. We first show that these charged fluids also exhibit a nonzero low-frequency shear elasticity at the submillimeter scale, highlighting their resistance to shear stress. A neutron scattering study completes the dynamic mechanical analysis of the paramagnetic nitrate solution, evidencing that the magnetic properties do not induce the formation of a structure in the solution. We conclude that the elastic correlations contained in liquids usually considered as viscous away from any phase transition contribute in an effective way to collective effects under external stress whether mechanical or magnetic fields. 相似文献
Polymeric ionic liquids (PILs) have attracted considerable attention as electrolytes with high stability and mechanical durability. Light-responsive materials are enabling for a variety of future technologies owing to their remote and noninvasive manipulation, spatiotemporal control, and low environmental impact. To address this potential, responsive PIL materials based on diarylethene units were designed to undergo light-mediated conductivity changes. Key to this modulation is tuning of the cationic character of the imidazolium bridging unit upon photoswitching. Irradiation of these materials with UV light triggers a circa 70 % drop in conductivity in the solid state that can be recovered upon subsequent irradiation with visible light. This light-responsive ionic conductivity enables spatiotemporal and reversible patterning of PIL films using light. This modulation of ionic conductivity allows for the development of light-controlled electrical circuits and wearable photodetectors. 相似文献
New experimental data at 25°C for the density, velocity of sound, refractive index, and viscosity of aqueous solutions of DL-alanine and NaCl are reported. The apparent molar volume and isentropic compressibility of DL-alanine in aqueous electrolyte solutions have been calculated from the measured properties. The results show that DL-alanine exhibits a positive volume transfer to solutions of a higher NaCl concentration and a negative apparent isentropic compressibility for DL-alanine in the presence of NaCl. These effects indicate that the apparent volume of DL-alanine is larger in solutions with higher electrolyte concentration and the water molecules surrounding the DL-alanine molecules are less compressible than the water molecules in the bulk solution. The results also show an increase in the viscosity of the solution with an increase in both DL-alanine and NaCl concentrations. These effects are attributed to the two charged groups of DL-alanine and the interactions between the charged groups and the hydrocarbon backbone of DL-alanine with the ions. A model, consisting of a short-range interaction term represented by a virial expansion and a Debye-Hückel term that considers long-range interactions, has been developed to correlate the measured experimental data. 相似文献
Densities were determined for binary mixtures containing the protic ionic liquid bis(2-hydroxyethyl)ammonium acetate [BHEAA] and an alcohol (methanol, ethanol, and 1-propanol) at four different temperatures (293.15, 303.15, 313.15, and 323.15) K and ambient pressure. Coefficients of thermal expansion and excess molar volumes were calculated from the experimental densities. The excess molar volumes were fitted using the Redlich-Kister polynomial equation. Negative deviations from ideal behavior of the excess molar volume were observed for all systems investigated in this study. The results were interpreted in terms of ion-dipole interactions and structural factors of the ionic liquid and alcohol. It was observed that an increase of the alcohol carbon chain length led to lower interactions on mixing. 相似文献
Super powers! Uranium(VI) ions can be extracted from aqueous solutions into supercritical CO2 (sc‐CO2) via an ionic liquid phase that contained tri‐n‐butyl phosphate (TBP) as a complexing agent (see figure). This process has potential applications in the nuclear industry for removing actinides from nuclear waste.
