Abstract

The gas-phase acidity (GA) scale from (CF3CO)2NH to (C2F5SO2)2NH—about a 24 kcal mol−1 range of gas-phase acidities—was reexamined using the Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance equilibrium measurement approach. Some additions and modifications to the standard methodology of GA measurements were introduced (estimation of partial pressures from mass spectra of the compounds, instead of the pressure gauge readings and use of long reaction times) to achieve higher reliability. Gas-phase acidities of 18 compounds were determined for the first time. The results reveal a contraction of the previously published values in this part of the scale. In particular, the GA values of (CF3SO2)2NH and (C2F5SO2)2NH (important components of lithium ion battery electrolytes and ionic liquids) were revised toward stronger acidities from 291.8 kcal mol−1 to 286.5 kcal mol−1 and from 289.4 kcal mol−1 to 283.7 kcal mol−1 (i.e., by 5.3 and 5.7 kcal mol−1), respectively. Experimental and computational evidence is presented in support of the current results.
