Dependence of cobaltocenium diffusion in ionic liquids on the alkyl chain length of 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium cations

Abstract: The electrochemical behavior of cobaltocenium (Cc(+)) on a Au(111) electrode was investigated in five 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)amide ([Cnmim][Tf2N], n = 2, 4, 6, 8, or 10) ionic liquids (ILs) in the temperature range from 293.15 to 343.15 K by cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry. The redox couple of Cc(+) exhibited a clear reversible one-electron reaction in all the [Cnmim][Tf2N] ILs. The diffusion coefficients of Cc(+) increased with an increase in the alkyl chain length of… Show more

“…Table compiles densities of some common ILs with linear alkyl groups and various anions around 293.15 K found in the literature for comparisons with data obtained in this work. In general, the densities of the new ILs presented in this work do not exceed either the upper or lower limits of common ILs.…”

“…The potential values of LSV were referenced to the redox potential of 2 mM ferrocene (Fc) in the corresponding IL, as recommended by IUPAC [16] . The Fc/Fc + redox couple has been used widely to characterize ILs [17] , [18] , [19] , [20] .…”

“…A larger cation tends to provide C 60 thin films with higher electrochemical stability, [96] but a slower restructuring in the films is expected. This is due to an increase in viscosity of the medium as a result of an increase in alkyl chain length of the cation [97] . Therefore, the suitable electrolyte needs to be balanced with its E pw , stability of films, and reaction kinetics.…”
