Physicochemical Properties of New Dicationic Ether-Functionalized Low Melting Point Ammonium Salts

Eleven new and one previously known but insufficiently characterized dicationic quaternary ammonium (QA) salts were synthesized and characterized. They contain an ethoxy ethyl group either in a side chain and/or as spacer of the diammonium cation and have bromide, hexafluorophosphate (PF6–), bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (TFSI), or trifluoromethanesulfonate (TFMS) as an anion. 1H and 13C techniques, mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis together with X-ray diffraction and thermoanalytical methods were used for their characterization both in the liquid and solid state. In addition, residual water content and viscosity measurements were made for the two room temperature ionic liquid…

Properties of new low melting point quaternary ammonium salts with bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide anion

Eight new monocationic quaternary ammonium (QA) salts with the bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (TFSI) anion were prepared by metathesis using our previously reported QA halides as precursors. New salts were characterized both in liquid and solid state using 1 H and 13 C NMR techniques, mass spectroscopy and elemental analysis together with X-ray diffraction and thermoanalytical methods. In addition, residual water content, viscosity and conductivity measurements were made for three of the roomtemperature ionic liquids (RTILs). The crystal structures of three compounds were determined by X-ray single crystal diffraction. Powder diffraction was used to study the crystallinity of the solid …
