Abstract In this paper we investigated the calculation of the anodic limit of two anions of ionic liquids, largely used as electrolyte of lithium batteries. Starting from a model based on calculations performed on single ions at the MP2 level of theory, we showed that the matching between calculation and experiments decreases while using more expanded basis set with respect to 6-31G**, possibly because of the destabilization of the neutral species when larger basis sets are considered. Additionally, in order to decrease the computational time, the performances for the calculation of the anodic limit obtained by means of a series of DFT functionals with increasing level of complexity (from the Generalized Gradient Approximation to the Range Separated Hybrid meta-Generalized Gradient Approximation) were compared. Overall, the best performing functionals are BMK, ωB97M-V and MN12-SX, while acceptable results can be obtained by M06-2X, M11, M08-HX and M11-L. Some less computationally expensive functionals, like CAM-B3LYP and ωB97X-D, also provide reasonable values of the anodic limit.

The liquid structures and transport properties of electrolytes composed of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)amide (Li[FSA]) and glyme (triglyme (G3) or tetraglyme (G4)) were investigated. Raman spectroscopy indicated that the 1:1 mixtures of Li[FSA] and glyme (G3 or G4) are solvate ionic liquids (SILs) comprising a cationic [Li(glyme)]+ complex and the [FSA]− anion. In Li[FSA]-excess liquids with Li[FSA]/glyme molar ratios greater than 1, anionic Lix[FSA]y(y–x)– complexes were formed in addition to the cationic [Li(glyme)]+ complex. Pulsed field gradient NMR measurements revealed that the self-diffusion coefficients of Li+ (DLi) and glyme (Dglyme) are identical in the Li[FSA]/glyme=1 liquid, suggesting that Li+ and glyme diffuse together and that a long-lived cationic [Li(glyme)]+ complex is formed in the SIL. The ratio of the self-diffusion coefficients of [FSA]− and Li+, DFSA/DLi, was essentially constant at ~1.1–1.3 in the Li[FSA]/glyme<1 liquid. However, DFSA/DLi increased rapidly as the amount of Li[FSA] increased in the Li[FSA]/glyme>1 liquid, indicating that the ion transport mechanism in the electrolyte changed at the composition of Li[FSA]/glyme=1. The oxidative stability of the electrolytes was enhanced as the Li[FSA] concentration increased. Furthermore, Al corrosion was suppressed in the electrolytes for which Li[FSA]/glyme>1. A battery consisting of a Li metal anode, a LiNi1/3Mn1/3Co1/3O2 cathode, and Li[FSA]/G3=2 electrolyte exhibited a discharge capacity of 105mAhg−1 at a current density of 1.3mAcm−2, regardless of its low ionic conductivity of 0.2mScm−1.
