- Self-diffusion in a bitumen emulsion was studied by H-1 NMR. The emulsion forms two phases: continuous and dispersed. The continuous aqueous phase contains mainly water, with the energy of activation of the diffusion process equal to that of bulk water, while its diffusivity is smaller than that of bulk water by a factor of 2. The dispersed phase consists of bitumen droplets containing confined water, whose dynamics is characterized by a fully restricted diffusion regime in cavities with sizes of similar to 0.11 mu m. Therefore, the studied bitumen emulsion can be described by a model of a complex multiple emulsion of the water/oil/water (WOW) type. The suggested model does agree well with data from H-1 NMR spectroscopy and diffusometry of the bitumen emulsion doped with paramagnetic MnSO4(aq) as well as with an additional H-1 NMR study of the emulsion structure, in which emulsion stability was compromised by freezing at 253 K.

- Non-halogenated boron-based ionic liquids (ILs) composed of phosphonium cations and chelated orthoborate anions have high hydrolytic stability, low melting point and exceptional properties for various applications. This study is focused on ILs with the same type of cation, trihexyltetradecylphosphonium ([P6,6,6,14]+), and two orthoborate anions, such as bis(salicylato)borate ([BScB]−) and bis(oxalato)borate ([BOB]−). We compare the results of this study with our previous studies on ILs with bis(mandelato)borate ([BMB]−) and a variety of different cations (tetraalkylphosphonium, dialkylpyrrolidinium and dialkylimidazolium). The ion dynamics and phase behavior of these ILs is studied using 1H and 11B pulsed-field-gradient (PFG) NMR. PFG NMR is demonstrated to be a useful tool to elucidate the dynamics of ions in this class of phosphonium orthoborate ILs. In particular, the applicability of 11B PFG NMR for studying anions without 1H, such as [BOB]−, and the limitations of this technique to measure self-diffusion of ions in ILs are demonstrated and discussed in detail for the first time.

- We studied the diffusion of ionic liquid ethylammonium nitrate confined within pores of two types of porous glass, Vycor and Varapor, with average pore sizes of 4 nm and 9.8 nm, respectively, by 1H NMR in the temperature range of 295–325 K. The diffusional behavior of the ionic liquid corresponds to long-term diffusion in a system of interconnected pores. It was shown that the diffusivity of EAN confined in Varapor is controlled by the porous system’s tortuosity and does need to take into consideration the interaction with the surface of the discrete pore walls. In the case of Vycor, the long-term diffusivity is a factor 1.5 lower than that expected in the absence of interaction with the pore walls. Two possible mechanisms that may explain this discrepancy are the EAN-surface interaction and retardation of EAN diffusion compared to n-decane in smaller pores present in Vycor porous glass due to pore size distribution. Confinement of EAN in nanoporous glass does not leads to the EAN phase transformation observed earlier for alkylammonium nitrates enclosed in a micrometer-sized layer. Prolonged exposure of EAN to a strong static magnetic field does not leads to changes in the NMR and diffusivity of EAN over time.

- Self-diffusion of ions in the protic ionic liquid ethylammonium nitrate (EAN) was studied by 1H NMR pulsed field gradient techniques between 294 and 393 K in the presence of a PTFE insert in a 5-mm NMR tube. At all temperatures, the bulk diffusion of ions (measured by 1H and 15N NMR) can be described by a unique diffusion coefficient. The presence of solid hydrophobic surfaces of PTFE induces regions of EAN in their vicinity, where diffusion of ions, both cations and anions, is reduced compared to the bulk values. An additional line-shape analysis in 1H NMR spectra showed that local mobility of ethylammonium cations in the surface layers near PTFE is also reduced.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We studied changes in the diffusion coefficients in layers of EAN confined between glass plates, placed in a strong magnetic field with a magnetic flux density B0, and rotated around the axis directed along and normal to B0. Under the rotational conditions along B0, the diffusion coefficient decreases with time after placement in the magnetic field at the same rate as for a static sample, observed previously (Filippov and Antzutkin, Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. 2018. 20. 6316). However, when the EAN layers are rotating around the axis perpendicular to B0, the duration of exposure to the magnetic field does not affect the diffusion coefficient until the rotation stops. On the other hand, the diffusivity after extended exposure to a static magnetic field increases as the sample starts to rotate around the axis perpendicular to B0. The observed effects are due to either the periodic change in the orientation of the thin surface layers of EAN or inhomogeneity of B0 in the sample due to the B0 fluctuation.

Self-diffusion in ionic liquids with nitrate anion : Effects of confinement between glass plates and static magnetic field

- Alkylammonium nitrate protic ionic liquids (ILs), when placed between flat polar borosilicate glass plates, have demonstrated enhanced diffusivity and the gradual decrease of diffusivity after exposure to an external static magnetic field (Filippov et al., 2018). This phenomenon has been explained by phase transformations taking place in the ILs. In this study, we observed similar processes occurring in systems prepared with ethylammonium nitrate confined between quartz plates. A higher content of silicon oxide in the plates does not significantly alter the phenomenon previously found in the system prepared with borosilicate glass plates. For the first time, we have observed similar effects of confinement and magnetic field on the aprotic IL, 1‑ethyl‑3‑methylimidazolium nitrate. Substitution of the ethylammonium cation with a 1‑ethyl‑3‑methylimidazolium cation slows down the kinetics and increases magnitude of the processes occurring in the IL exposed to a magnetic field. We suggested that the main factor determining these effects is the presence and modification of the hydrogen-bonding network in the studied protic and aprotic ILs. The process of inverse phase transformation for the confined ethylammonium nitrate after removing the sample from the magnetic field was observed and analysed.

State of anion in ethylammonium nitrate enclosed between micrometer-spaced glass plates as studied by 17O and 15N NMR

- Some aprotic and protic ionic liquids (ILs) containing nitrate anion demonstrate unusual dynamic behavior of cations when these ILs are enclosed in micrometer-spaced layers between glass plates. We applied 17O and 15N NMR spectroscopy to discover the state and transformations of 17O and 15N isotopically enriched nitrate anion of ethylammonium nitrate (EAN) enclosed between glass plates. 15N NMR spectra demonstrated preferential orientation of the principal axes of the nitrate anions perpendicular to the normal of the glass surface. Therefore, isotropic ionic liquid EAN, when placed within a micrometer-spaced enclosure, forms an ordered phase, which is similar to a liquid crystal. The peculiarity of this phase is that the cations do not have a predominant orientation. Other features of this phase that are typical for liquid crystal phases are the changed local and translational dynamics in comparison with the isotropic state and slow transformation occurring under the action of an external magnetic field.

- Boric acid is known to enhance the kinetics of CO2 absorption by some active aqueous solutions. However, the mechanism of interaction of boric acid with CO2 in the presence of active molecules is not yet fully understood. In this work, the interaction and dynamics of ions in aqueous solutions of functionalized choline-based ionic liquids [N1,1,5,2OH][Threo] and [N1,1,5,2OH][Tau] in the presence of boric acid and CO2 was thoroughly investigated using a multinuclear NMR approach: 13C and 11B NMR spectroscopy, 11B NMR transverse relaxation, and 1H and 11B NMR diffusometry. 13C and 11B NMR spectroscopy revealed the formation of borate-based complexes as a result of a reaction between boric acid and the anions of the ILs at ionic liquid/boric acid molar ratios larger than ca. 0.15. The formation of these complexes and their dynamics were further investigated using 11B relaxation and 1H and 11B pulse-field-gradient (PFG) NMR. Plausible reaction mechanisms of boric acid with the anions of the ILs, formation of the borate complexes, and dissociation of these complexes facilitated by CO2 molecules are suggested.

Temperature dependence of 1H NMR chemical shifts and diffusivity of confined ethylammonium nitrate ionic liquid
- 2020

- Some ionic liquids (ILs) change their dynamic properties when placed in a confinement between polar surfaces (Filippov et al., Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. 2018, 20, 6316). The diffusivities of ions and NMR relaxation times in these ILs also reversibly change under a strong static magnetic field. The mechanisms of these phenomena are not clear, but it has been suggested that they involve modified hydrogen-bonding networks formed in these ILs in the presence of polar surfaces. To obtain a better understanding of these effects, we performed temperature-dependent measurements of chemical shifts and diffusion coefficients for ethylammonium nitrate (EAN) IL in the bulk phase (IB) and confined in layers with a thickness of ~4 μm between quartz plates unexposed (I phase) and exposed (IMF phase) to a static magnetic field of 9.4 T. It was shown that the NMR chemical shift of NH3 protons of EAN in the I phase is strongly shifted upfield, ~0.0145 ppm/K, which is due to weakening of the hydrogen-bonding network of the confined EAN. Exposure to the magnetic field leads to restitution of the hydrogen-bonding (H-bonding network). The temperature dependences of diffusion coefficients follow the order D(I) > D(IB) > D(IMF) and can be described by a Vogel-Fulcher-Tammann approach with variation of the pre-exponential factor, which is determined by the strength of the H-bonding network. Confinement of EAN between plates (IB → I) is an endothermic process, while processes occurring in a magnetic field, I → IMF and IMF → I, are exothermic and endothermic, respectively.

- We report on syntheses, characterisation by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction (XRD) measurements, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations of electronic/molecular structure and NMR chemical shifts of complexes of Bi(III), having the molecular formulae: [Bi{S2CN(C2H5)2)}3] (1), [Bi{S2CN(C2H5)2)}2(C12H8N2)NO3)] (2), and [Bi2{S2CN(CH2)5}6 H2O] (3). The powder XRD patterns of complexes (1) and (2) resembled the corresponding calculated powder XRD patterns for previously reported single crystal structures. Single crystal XRD structure of complex (3), reported in this work, adopted an orthorhombic system with a space group Pbca with a=10.9956(3) Å, b=27.7733(8) Å, c=35.1229(10) Å and α=β=γ=90°. The experimental solid‐state 13C/15N NMR data of the complexes (1)‐(3) were in accord with their X‐ray single crystal structures. The unit cell of the complex (3) shows a weak supramolecular Bi S interaction leading to the formation of a non‐centrosymmetric binuclear molecule [Bi2{S2CN(CH2)5}6 H2O], which displays structural inequivalence in both 13C/15N NMR, and XRD data. Assignments of resonance lines in solid‐state 13C/15N NMR spectra of complexes (1)‐(3) were assisted by chemical shift calculations using periodic DFT methods. The findings of the present multidisciplinary approach will contribute in designing molecular models and further understanding of the structures and properties of (diamagnetic) metal complexes, including heavy metal ones.
