Abstract

The Raman spectra of (1 − x)(BMITFSI), __x__LiTFSI ionic liquids, where 1‐butyl‐3‐methylimidazolium cation (BMI^+^) and bis(trifluoromethane‐sulfonyl)imide anion (TFSI^−^) are analyzed for LiTFSI mole fractions x < 0.4. As expected from previous studies on similar TFSI‐based systems, most lithium ions are shown to be coordinated within [Li(TFSI)~2~]^−^ anionic clusters. The variation of the self‐diffusion coefficients of the ^1^H, ^19^F, and ^7^Li nuclei, measured by pulsed‐gradient spin‐echo NMR (PGSE‐NMR) as a function of x, can be rationalized in terms of the weighted contribution of BMI^+^ cations, TFSI^−^ ‘free’ anions, and [Li(TFSI)~2~]^−^ anionic clusters. This implies a negative transference number for lithium. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

The calculated and experimental Raman spectra of the (EMI + )TFSI -ionic liquid, where EMI + is the 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium cation and TFSI -the bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide anion, have been investigated for a better understanding of the EMI + and TFSI -conformational isomerism as a functi
