Title
Physical and electrochemical properties of thioether-functionalized ionic liquids
The preparation and characterization of a series of ionic liquids based on S-alkyl thiolonium, S-alkyl thiotetrazolium, or S-alkyl thiobenzolium cations coupled with bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)amide, trifluoromethanesulfonate, alkyl phosphate, chloride, and hexafluorophosphate anions are reported. All are liquid at room temperature, except the chloride salt, which has a melting point of 92 °C. The electrochemical characteristics of this class of ionic liquid have been determined by cyclic voltammetry. Potential windows of the ionic liquids have been obtained at glassy carbon, platinum, and gold electrodes and found to be the largest at glassy carbon, but are limited by oxidation of the thioether-functionalized cation. The voltammetry of IUPAC reference potential scale systems, ferrocene/ferrocenium, cobaltocenium/cobaltocene, and decamethylferrocene/decamethylferrocenium have been evaluated, with the last being most widely applicable. Nonadditivity of Faradaic current is found in the voltammograms of decamethylferrocene in the presence of ferrocene and cobaltocenium. Diffusion coefficient, viscosity, ionic conductivity, double layer capacitance, and other physical properties have also been measured. The dependence of the diffusion coefficient vs viscosity follows the Stokes−Einstein relationship. The properties of the ionic liquids are compared with the related imidazolium family of ionic liquids.
