Specific ion effects in molecular non-aqueous electrolytes
Abstract: Specific-ion (Hofmeister effects) are ubiquitous whenever ions are dissolved in solution and are important in many research fields from chemistry, to biology and in materials science. However, to date, the overwhelming body of scientific work has focused on aqueous electrolytes, with little attention focused on ion solvation structures in molecular solvents other than water. In this proposal, I will examine specific ion effects in two common and industrially important non-aqueous solvents, ethylene carbonate and dimethyl sulfoxide, and compare the structures obtained to that determined for the neat solvents. This will elucidate the magnitude and nature of this phenomena for a much wider range of electrolytes than currently known and reciprocally, may shed new insight into water and the origin of its peculiar solvation.
