Lianjie Xue,Lianjie Xue,Eshan Gurung,Eshan Gurung,George Tamas,George Tamas,Yung P. Koh,Yung P. Koh,Michael Shadeck,Michael Shadeck,Sindee L. Simon,Sindee L. Simon,Mark Maroncelli,Mark Maroncelli,Edward L. Quitevis,Edward L. Quitevis +15 more
TL;DR: The branched ionic liquids (ILs) 1-(iso-alkyl)-3-methylimidazolium bis[(trifluoromethane)sulfonyl]amide ([(N - 2)mCN-1C1im][NTf2] with N = 3-7) were synthesized and their physicochemical properties characterized and compared with the properties of linear ILs as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fragility of ionic liquids measured by Flash differential scanning calorimetry
TL;DR: In this article, a series of imidazolium-based ionic liquids with varying functionalities from aliphatic to aromatic groups and a fixed bis[(trifluoromethane)sulfonyl]amide ([NTf2]−) anion were characterized using a commercial rapid scanning nanocalorimetry instrument, the Mettler Toledo Flash DSC.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Stokes-Einstein equation and the diffusion of ferrocene in imidazolium-based ionic liquids studied by cyclic voltammetry: Effects of cation ion symmetry and alkyl chain length

TL;DR: In this paper, the diffusion of ferrocene (Fc) molecules in ionic liquids (ILs) using cyclic voltammetry was studied using the Randles-Sevcik equation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Probing the interplay between electrostatic and dispersion interactions in the solvation of nonpolar nonaromatic solute molecules in ionic liquids: An OKE spectroscopic study of CS2/[CnC1im][NTf2] mixtures (n = 1–4)
TL;DR: A surprising result in this study is the solubility of CS2 in [C1C1im][NTf2], which involves the interaction of a nonpolar nonaromatic molecular solute and only the charged groups of the IL.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optical Kerr effect spectroscopy of CS2 in monocationic and dicationic ionic liquids: insights into the intermolecular interactions in ionic liquids.
TL;DR: The intermolecular dynamics of CS2 being higher in frequency in DIL(2n) than in MIL(n) is consistent with recent molecular dynamics simulations, indicating that CS2 molecules experience a stiffer potential in dicationic ionic liquids than in monocationic ILs.
