چکیده
The fast, high yield synthesis and full characterization of Na[B(hfip)(4)] (hfip: OC(H)(CF(3))(2)) from NaBH(4) and hexafluoroisopropanol (hfipH) is presented. By anion metathesis, five [B(hfip)(4)](-) salts with classical/functionalized ionic liquid (IL) cations with melting points between 0 ([C(6)MIM](+)[B(hfip)(4)](-)) and 113 °C ([C(4)MMorph](+)[B(hfip)(4)](-)) were prepared. Four of these qualify as ILs and one as room temperature IL (RTIL). The properties of the borate anion [B(hfip)(4)](-) and its aluminum analogue [Al(hfip)(4)](-) were compared based on the available structural information from XRD. Viscosities (10.3 (90 °C) to 855 (0 °C) mPa s(-1)) and conductivities (0.603 (30 °C) to 4.844 (90 °C) mS cm(-1)) were measured between 0 and 90 °C, and described by the Vogel-Fulcher-Tammann (VFT) equations. The properties of the [B(hfip)(4)](-) ILs were analyzed in the context of the anion-dependent molecular volume V(m)-viscosity-/conductivity-correlations, also in comparison to ILs with [BF(4)](-)/[PF(6)](-), [N(CN)(2)](-), [Tf(2)N](-) and [Al(hfip)(4)](-) counterions. The viscosities and conductivities of [B(hfip)(4)](-) ILs are slightly inferior to [Al(hfip)(4)](-) ILs, similar to/better than all other anions given above. According to the Walden plots, the ionicity of the [B(hfip)(4)](-) ILs may at least be classified as "good". By sharp contrast to the [Al(hfip)(4)](-) ILs, the [B(hfip)(4)](-) ILs have good stability against humidity/water. Thus, handling of [B(hfip)(4)](-) ILs in an open laboratory atmosphere over hours and days is allowed and further facilitates the use of this new IL class.

Ionic liquids with perfluorinated alkoxyaluminates.
Ionic liquids with the weakly coordinating perfluoroalkoxyaluminate anions, Al(ORF)4-, are obtained by a metathesis reaction of LiAl(ORF)4 and [bmim]Cl or [bmpyr]Cl in high yields. The compounds [bmim][Al(hfip)4] and [bmpyr][Al(hfip)4] have surprisingly low viscosities at elevated temperatures (60 degrees C) and an exceptionally high electrochemical window, which might render them useful for ce...

Room-temperature ionic liquids containing the triply charged tricyanomelaminate (tcmel) ion [C(3)N(6)(CN)(3)](3-) were synthesized. The 1-methyl-3-methylimidazolium (MMIm), 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium (EMIm), and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium (BMIm) salts of the tricyanomelaminate ion have glass transition temperatures (-6, -20, and -30 °C) similar to those found for the analogous monomeric dicya...

Weakly coordinating anions (WCAs) have been a subject of intensive research in the past decades due to their increasing importance in coordination chemistry and catalysis [1 – 6]. These applications have grown out of basic research into the special properties of anions containing hydrocarbon and fluorocarbon functionality such as [SO3CF3], [B(C6F5)4], [OTeF5] [7]. Owing to the importance of WCA...

Glycidyl azide polymer (GAP) is used as a binder in the propellants. Energetic ionic liquids are used as a plasticizer to correct the properties of polymer. In this study, first ionic liquid was bonded to the GAP by certain amount and then the energetic anions of nitrate (NO3) and azide (N3) were used to exchange anion. FTIR analyses confirm accurately anions exchange. DSC, viscometer and heat ...
