We report the kinetic study of the substitution reaction of a cationic platinum(II) complex [Pt(dpma)Cl](+) (dpma identical with di(2-picolyl)amine) with thioacetate in room temperature ionic liquids {[C(4)C(1)im][NTf(2)], [C(4)C(1)py][NTf(2)], [C(4)C(1)py][OTf] and [(C(3)O)C(1)im][NTf(2)]} and molecular solvents (water, methanol and DMSO). The reaction was studied as a function of the nucleoph...

The reorganization energy of electron transfer processes in ionic fluids is studied under the linear response approximation using a molecule Debye-Hückel theory. Reorganization energies of some model reactants of electron transfer reactions in molten salts are obtained from molecular simulations and a molecule Debye-Hückel approach. Good agreements between simulation results and the results fro...

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is one of the major contributors to the greenhouse effect. The power and industrial sectors combined account for about 60% of the global CO2 emissions [1]. CO2 capture and storage (CCS), which involves the processes of capture, transport and long-term storage of carbon dioxide, is a technology aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions from burning fossil fuels during indus...

Here we present a theory of ion aggregation and gelation room temperature ionic liquids (RTILs). Based on it, investigate the effect correlated transport—ionic conductivity transference numbers—obtaining closed-form expressions for these quantities. The depends maximum number associations cation anion can form strength their association. To validate presented theory, perform molecular dynamics ...
