These spin probes were made by anion metathesis of 4-trimethylammonio-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-yloxyl iodide using the corresponding silver salts. The latter is made by the alkylation of 4-amino-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-yloxyl. Furthermore, the Letter gives an improved synthetic way to 4-sulfonamido-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-yloxyl using chlorosulfuric acid trimethylsilylester and 4-amino-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-yloxyl. All the spin probes are highly interesting for the investigation of ionic liquids.

The ionogels prepared with the silane-modified nanoparticles are more homogeneous than ionogels prepared with unmodified magnetite particles. The silane-modified particles are immobilized in the ionogel and are resistant tonanoparticle leaching. The modified particles also render the ionogels mechanically more stable than the ionogels synthesized with unmodified nanoparticles. The ionogels respond to external permanent magnets and are therefore prototypes of a new soft magnetic actuator.

The ionic liquids are composed either of bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide (NTf2) as anion and various cations or they contain an imidazolium ion in combination with various anions. The cations include imidazolium, pyrrolidinium, piperidinium, polymethine or ammonium ions. Furthermore, BF4-, PF6-, triflate, camphorsulfonate, lactate, tosylate or tris(pentafluoroethyl) trifluorophosphate (FAP) are the counter ions in the imidazolium salts. The structural variation of the ionic liquids results in differences in glass formation, semiaystallinity, or crystallinity, as well as in viscosity differences. Furthermore, a vinyl substituent at the imidazolium ion and a methacryloyloxyethyl substituent at the ammonium ion result in polymerizable ionic liquids that were converted via a radical mechanism in amorphous polymerized ionic liquids with a glass transition temperature, which is significantly higher compared to the ionic liquids. An additional substituent at TEMPO causes additional hydrogen bond formation or additional Coulomb interactions with the individual ions of the ionic liquids compared to TEMPO. This influences the mobility of these radicals in the ionic liquid expressed by differences in the average rotational correlation time (T-rot). The mobility of the radicals in the ionic liquids as function of the temperature describes ionic liquids either as continuum in analogy to molecular solvents using the Stokes-Einstein model, that is the case for 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium NTf2, or as medium where free volume effects are important for the mobility of a solute in the ionic liquid using the model of Spernol, Gierer, and Wirtz. The 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium BF4- fits well into the latter. Furthermore, the isotropic hyperfine coupling constant (A(iso)(N-14)) of the stable radicals gives information about micropolarity of the ionic liquids only if the mobility of the radical is high enough in the ionic liquid. In addition to the rotational mobility of the stable radicals, the photogenerated lophyl radicals give information about translational diffusion of radicals and solvent cage effects in the ionic liquids. The application of the Eyring equation results mostly in the expected negative values of the activation entropy for the transition state that is typical for bimolecular reactions. Only few examples show a less negative or positive activation entropy for the bimolecular reaction, which may be attributed to radical recombination within the solvent cage to a high extent. The results obtained during investigation of radicals in ionic liquids are important to understand the radical processes in ionic liquids that may occur for example in dye sensitized solar cells, photo or thermally induced reactions or radical polymerizations in ionic liquids.

IGs combine the properties of the matrix such as mechanical strength with IL properties like high ionic conductivity, high thermal stability, or catalytic activity. IGs are thus attractive for many applications, but the vast majority of IGs made and published so far are bulk materials or dense films. Applications like sensing or catalysis, however, would benefit from IGs with high surface areas or defined surface morphologies or architectures. In spite of this, only relatively few examples of high-surface-area IGs have been made so far; this has mostly been achieved by electrospinning, which has proven to be a promising strategy towards advanced IGs. The current review discusses first developments and outlines the future potential of electrospun ionogels, predominantly from a materials and inorganic chemistry perspective.

It is crucial for the growth of living organisms as well as food and energy source. Traditionally, industrial ammonia production is predominated by Haber- Bosch process (HBP) which is based on direct conversion of N2 and H2 gas under high temperature and high pressure (~500oC, 150-300 bar). However, it is not the favorite route because of its thermodynamic and kinetic limitations, and the need for the energy intense production of hydrogen gas by reforming processes. All these disfavors of HBP open a target to search for an alternative technique to perform efficient ammonia synthesis via electrochemical catalytic processes, in particular via water electrolysis, using water as the hydrogen source to save the process from gas reforming. In this study, the investigation of the interface effects between imidazolium-based ionic liquids and the surface of porous carbon materials with a special interest in the nitrogen absorption capability. As the further step, the possibility to establish this interface as the catalytically active area for the electrochemical N2 reduction to NH3 has been evaluated. This particular combination has been chosen because the porous carbon materials and ionic liquids (IL) have a significant importance in many scientific fields including catalysis and electrocatalysis due to their special structural and physicochemical properties. Primarily, the effects of the confinement of ionic liquid (EmimOAc, 1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate) into carbon pores have been investigated. The salt-templated porous carbons, which have different porosity (microporous and mesoporous) and nitrogen species, were used as model structures for the comparison of the IL confinement at different loadings. The nitrogen uptake of EmimOAc can be increased by about 10 times by the confinement in the pores of carbon materials compared to the bulk form. In addition, the most improved nitrogen absorption was observed by IL confinement in micropores and in nitrogen-doped carbon materials as a consequence of the maximized structural changes of IL. Furthermore, the possible use of such interfaces between EmimOAc and porous carbon for the catalytic activation of dinitrogen during the kinetically challenging NRR due to the limited gas absorption in the electrolyte, was examined. An electrocatalytic NRR system based on the conversion of water and nitrogen gas to ammonia at ambient operation conditions (1 bar, 25 °C) was performed in a setup under an applied electric potential with a single chamber electrochemical cell, which consists of the combination of EmimOAc electrolyte with the porous carbon-working electrode and without a traditional electrocatalyst. Under a potential of -3 V vs. SCE for 45 minutes, a NH3 production rate of 498.37 μg h-1 cm-2 and FE of 12.14% were achieved. The experimental observations show that an electric double-layer, which serves the catalytically active area, occurs between a microporous carbon material and ions of the EmimOAc electrolyte in the presence of sufficiently high provided electric potential. Comparing with the typical NRR systems which have been reported in the literature, the presented electrochemical ammonia synthesis approach provides a significantly higher ammonia production rate with a chance to avoid the possible kinetic limitations of NRR. In terms of operating conditions, ammonia production rate and the faradic efficiency without the need for any synthetic electrocatalyst can be resulted of electrocatalytic activation of nitrogen in the double-layer formed between carbon and IL ions. N2 - Ammoniak ist eine Chemikalie von grundlegender Bedeutung für den lebenswichtigen Stickstoffkreislauf der Natur. Es ist entscheidend für das Wachstum lebender Organismen sowie von Nahrungsmitteln und Energiequellen. Traditionell wird die industrielle Ammoniakproduktion nach dem Haber-Bosch-Verfahren (HBP) dominiert, das auf der direkten Umwandlung von N2- und H2-Gas unter hoher Temperatur und hohem Druck (~ 500 ° C, 150-300 bar) basiert. Aufgrund seiner thermodynamischen und kinetischen Einschränkungen und der Notwendigkeit einer energieintensiven Erzeugung von Wasserstoffgas durch Reformierungsprozesse ist dies jedoch nicht der bevorzugte Weg. All diese Nachteile von HBP eröffnen ein Ziel für die Suche nach einer alternativen Technik zur Durchführung einer effizienten Ammoniaksynthese über elektrochemische katalytische Prozesse, insbesondere durch Wasserelektrolyse, wobei Wasser als Wasserstoffquelle verwendet wird, um den Prozess vor einer Gasreformierung zu bewahren. In dieser Studie wurde die Untersuchung der Grenzflächeneffekte zwischen ionischen Flüssigkeiten auf Imidazoliumbasis und der Oberfläche poröser Kohlenstoffmaterialien mit besonderem Interesse an der Stickstoffabsorptionsfähigkeit untersucht. Als weiterer Schritt wurde die Möglichkeit geprüft, diese Grenzfläche als katalytisch aktiven Bereich für die elektrochemische N2-Reduktion zu NH3 zu etablieren. Diese besondere Kombination wurde gewählt, weil die porösen Kohlenstoffmaterialien und ionischen Flüssigkeiten (IL) aufgrund ihrer besonderen strukturellen und physikochemischen Eigenschaften in vielen wissenschaftlichen Bereichen, einschließlich Katalyse und Elektrokatalyse, eine bedeutende Bedeutung haben. In erster Linie wurden die Auswirkungen des Einschlusses von ionischer Flüssigkeit (EmimOAc, 1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazoliumacetat) in Kohlenstoffporen untersucht. Die porösen Kohlenstoffe mit Salzschablonen, die unterschiedliche Porosität (mikroporös und mesoporös) und Stickstoffspezies aufweisen, wurden als Modellstrukturen für den Vergleich des IL-Einschlusses bei unterschiedlichen Beladungen verwendet. Die Stickstoffaufnahme von EmimOAc kann durch den Einschluss in den Poren von Kohlenstoffmaterialien im Vergleich zur Massenform um das Zehnfache erhöht werden. Zusätzlich wurde die am besten verbesserte Stickstoffabsorption durch IL-Einschluss in Mikroporen und in stickstoffdotierten Kohlenstoffmaterialien als Folge der maximierten strukturellen Änderungen von IL beobachtet. Darüber hinaus wurde die mögliche Verwendung solcher Grenzflächen zwischen EmimOAc und porösem Kohlenstoff für die katalytische Aktivierung von Distickstoff während des kinetisch herausfordernden NRR aufgrund der begrenzten Gasabsorption im Elektrolyten untersucht. Ein elektrokatalytisches NRR-System, das auf der Umwandlung von Wasser und Stickstoffgas in Ammoniak bei Umgebungsbetriebsbedingungen (1 bar, 25 ° C) basiert, wurde in einem Aufbau unter einem angelegten elektrischen Potential mit einer elektrochemischen Einkammerzelle durchgeführt, die aus der Kombination von besteht EmimOAc-Elektrolyt mit poröser Kohlenstoff-Arbeitselektrode und ohne herkömmlichen Elektrokatalysator. Bei einem Potential von -3 V gegen SCE für 45 Minuten wurde eine NH3-Produktionsrate von 498,37 ug h & supmin; ¹ cm & supmin; ² und eine FE von 12,14% erreicht. Die experimentellen Beobachtungen zeigen, dass eine elektrische Doppelschicht, die dem katalytisch aktiven Bereich dient, zwischen einem mikroporösen Kohlenstoffmaterial und Ionen des EmimOAc-Elektrolyten in Gegenwart eines ausreichend hohen bereitgestellten elektrischen Potentials auftritt. Im Vergleich zu den typischen NRR-Systemen, über die in der Literatur berichtet wurde, bietet der vorgestellte Ansatz der elektrochemischen Ammoniaksynthese eine signifikant höhere Ammoniakproduktionsrate mit der Möglichkeit, die möglichen kinetischen Einschränkungen der NRR zu vermeiden. In Bezug auf die Betriebsbedingungen können die Ammoniakproduktionsrate und die Faradic-Effizienz ohne die Notwendigkeit eines synthetischen Elektrokatalysators aus der elektrokatalytischen Aktivierung von Stickstoff in der zwischen Kohlenstoff- und IL-Ionen gebildeten Doppelschicht resultieren.
