چکیده

We have investigated the aggregation behaviors of water molecules in 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate/water mixtures using high-pressure methods. Under ambient pressure, the IR spectra indicate that two types of O-H species: free O-H and bonded O-H, existing in ionic liquid/water mixtures. As samples were compressed, a continuous loss of the free O-H band intensity was observed. This observation may have arisen from changes in the local structures of water molecules, and the geometrical properties of the hydrogen-bond network are likely to be perturbed as the pressure is elevated. A complementary insight of the O-H spectral features is obtained by measuring the concentration-dependent variation in the mid-infrared spectra under high pressure. A sharp O-H stretching band was observed in a diluted mixture corresponding to the high order in an ice VII-like structure. Nevertheless, a very broad O-H feature was measured in a concentrated mixture, which may be attributed to the presence of more than one stable cluster.

Effects of water and methanol on the molecular organization of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate as functions of pressure and concentration.

The structural organization in mixtures of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([bmim][BF(4)])/water or methanol was studied by infrared spectroscopy. No drastic change in the concentration dependence of the alkyl C-H band frequency was observed at high concentration of the ionic liquid. This behavior indicates a clustering of the ionic liquid in alkyl regions. Nevertheless, the prese...

The interactions between 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate ([BMIM][TFS]) and nano-Al2O3 are studied using high-pressure infrared spectroscopy. The thickness of the [BMIM][TFS] interfacial layer on the aluminum oxide are adjusted by controlling the number of washes with ethanol. In contrast to the results obtained under ambient pressure, local structures of both the cations a...
