Abstract: | A series of low-melting-point salts with hexakisdicyanonitrosomethanidolanthanoidate anions has been synthesised and characterised: (C(2) mim)(3) Ln(dcnm)(6)] (1?Ln; 1?Ln=1?La, 1?Ce, 1?Pr, 1?Nd), (C(2) C(1) mim)(3) Pr(dcnm)(6)] (2?Pr), (C(4) C(1) pyr)(3) Ce(dcnm)(6)] (3?Ce), (N(1114))(3) Ln(dcnm)(6)] (4?Ln; 4?Ln=4?La, 4?Ce, 4?Pr, 4?Nd, 4?Sm, 4?Gd), and (N(1112OH) )(3) Ce(dcnm)(6)] (5?Ce) (C(2) mim=1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium, C(2) C(1) mim=1-ethyl-2,3-dimethylimidazolium, C(4) C(1) py=N-butyl-4-methylpyridinium, N(1114) =butyltrimethylammonium, N(1112OH) =2-(hydroxyethyl)trimethylammonium=choline). X-ray crystallography was used to determine the structures of complexes 1?La, 2?Pr, and 5?Ce, all of which contain Ln(dcnm)(6)](3-) ions. Complexes 1?Ln and 2?Pr were all ionic liquids (ILs), with complex 3?Ce melting at 38.1?°C, the lowest melting point of any known complex containing the Ln(dcnm)(6)](3-) trianion. The ammonium-based cations proved to be less suitable for forming ILs, with complexes 4?Sm and 4?Gd being the only salts with the N(1114) cation to have melting points below 100?°C. The choline-containing complex 5?Ce did not melt up to 160?°C, with the increase in melting point possibly being due to extensive hydrogen bonding, which could be inferred from the crystal structure of the complex. |
