X-ray-Induced Fragmentation of Imidazolium-Based Ionic Liquids Studied by Soft X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy.
Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters 2018 Februrary 16
We investigated the X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) fingerprint of EMImTFSI ionic liquid (IL) and its fragmentation products created by X-ray irradiation. To accomplish this, we used an open geometry where an IL droplet is directly exposed in the vacuum chamber and an enclosed geometry where the IL is confined in a cell covered by an X-ray transparent membrane. In the open geometry, the XAS signature was stable and consistent with experimental and theoretical spectra reported in the literature. In contrast, when the IL is enclosed, its XAS evolves continuously under X-ray illumination due to the accumulation of volatile fragmentation products inside the closed cell, while they evaporate in the open geometry. The changes in the XAS from the core levels of relevant elements (C, N, S, F) together with density functional theory calculations allowed us to identify the chemical nature of the fragment products and the chemical bonds most vulnerable to rupture under soft X-ray irradiation.
