The complex solubilities of AgCl, AgBr, and AgI have been measured in several mixed solvents containing propylene carbonate and bis(trifluoroethyl)sulfite. The results indicate that a large inductive effect destabilizes the solvation of silver ions whereas the halide ions appear to be stabilized by coordination with the sulfinyl sulfur. Several physio-chemical properties of pure bis(trifluoroethyl)sulfite are reported.

In a continuing study on the optimization of the electrolyte medium for high-energy lithium batteries, volumes, heat capacities, and specific conductivities of LiClO4 and LiBr were measured in mixtures of γ-butyrolactone (BUTY) and 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME) and of propylene carbonate (PC) and BUTY. These results are compared with those of the electrolytes in the pure solvents. Phase diagrams are also reported when appropriate. The effect of addition of water to these binary and ternary systems was investigated with the same techniques. The mixtures DME–BUTY, PC–DME, DME–H2O, and BUTY–H2O are typical of mixtures of aprotic solvents and mixtures of aprotic solvents and water. The electrolytes at high concentrations in aprotic solvents of low dielectric constants are largely associated. The medium still conducts electrolytically since the ion pairs are in a state that resembles to a large extent that of a molten salt. With some systems at high concentration, stable solvates persist in the solution medium, as evidenced mostly by heat capacities, and are in equilibrium with either the excess solvent or unsolvated molten salts. In mixed solvents, the properties of electrolytes can largely be predicted from the binary systems and by the coexistence of these solvates. The properties of water in DME, BUTY, or mixtures of the two solvents are modified significantly in the presence of LiBr but only slightly with LiClO4. These specific interactions, which affect the heat capacities much more than the volumes and which are especially large with the system LiBr–DME, could be responsible for the decrease in reactivity of water with lithium metal in an aprotic medium in the presence of certain electrolytes. Key words: LiClO4, LiBr, γ-butyrolactone, dimethoxyethane, propylene carbonate, lithium battery, aprotic solvent, water, association, solvates, solid–liquid phase diagrams, volumes, heat capacities, specific conductivities.

AbstractViscosities of LiClO4 and LiBr have been measured in solvent mixtures of propylene carbonate (PC) with dimethylformamide (DMF), tetrahydrofuran (THF), acetonitrile (AN) and methyl formate (MF) at 298.15K. The dependence of viscosity on the composition of the mixed solvents was fitted with an equation without adjustable parameter. Viscosity B-coefficients for lithium salts and the corresponding activation free energies (Δμ0,≠) for viscous flow have been evaluated. At the same time, viscosity B-coefficients were predicted by the dielectric friction theory. The unsuccessful prediction of the composition dependence of the B-coefficients indicates that improvements will be necessary on the theory with taking account of the short-range interaction and molecular nature of the solvents. Furthermore, solute–solvent interactions in these mixed solvents are discussed in terms of the B-coefficients and activation parameters.
