Popis: | Hypothesis We compare the effects of water, either intentionally added or due to absorption from the air, on the phase diagram of the hydrophilic 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium dicyanamide ionic liquid, extending previous investigations to lower temperatures (down to 140 K), with a special attention to the changes of the environment of water molecules and the interface between water and ionic liquid as a function of temperature. Experiments Combined infrared spectroscopy and ab-initio calculations provide information about the phase transitions and the intermolecular changes occurring in the liquid. Findings The temperature dependence of the mid-infrared spectrum in the temperature range between 140 and 330 K indicates that in both cases the liquid undergoes a glass transition, but, when the water content is only due to absorption from air, a cold crystallization takes place on heating between ≈240 and ≈265 K, while it is suppressed when water is intentionally added in a greater amount. The analysis of the O H stretching bands indicates the existence of two different “liquid like” water environments. When cold crystallization takes places the water molecules, which seem less coordinated to the other H2O molecules and more related to the anions, appear to be part of the crystallized sample. In both cases, it seems that at microscopic level the sample is not homogeneous, but more likely it is composed of separated clusters or regions of bulk water confined in the ionic liquid. |
