Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) are novel promising materials widely used in various fields. Their structures and properties can be tuned by means of external perturbations, thus further broadening their applications. Herein, forces proportional to atomic mass (mass-related field) and atomic charge (electric field) are applied in molecular dynamics simulations to the IL 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide to investigate the origin of the resulting changes in structures and dynamics. The results show that both electric and mass-related fields cause the ion cages to expand and deform, eventually leading to their breakdown to produce a transformation of IL from cage structure to channel-like structure, which results in faster self-diffusion of ions in the directions of the applied force and to a lesser extent other directions. Further comparison of electric and mass-related fields demonstrates that only the electric fields reorientate cations to produce a hydrodynamically favoured conformation in the force direction which shows faster diffusion. The cis isomer of the anion is preferred in the presence of the electric fields, whereas applying the forces proportional to mass does not change the anion conformer equilibrium significantly. The results presented in this work aid in the understanding of how ions adjust their structures to adapt to external perturbations and facilitates the application of ILs as electrolytes.

Abstract
This review presents recent developments in the application of NMR spectroscopic techniques in the study of ionic liquids. NMR has been the primary tool not only for the structural characterization of ionic liquids, but also for the study of dynamics. The presence of a host of NMR active nuclei in ionic liquids permits widespread use of multinuclear NMR experiments. Chemical shifts and multinuclear coupling constants are used routinely for the structure elucidation of ionic liquids and of products formed by their covalent interactions with other materials. Also, the availability of a multitude of NMR techniques has facilitated the study of dynamical processes in them. These include the use of NOESY to study inter-ionic interactions, pulsed-field gradient techniques for probing transport properties, and relaxation measurements to elucidate rotational dynamics. This review will focus on the application of each of these techniques to investigate ionic liquids.

Thermodynamically Stable Cationic Dimers in Carboxyl-Functionalized Ionic Liquids: The Paradoxical Case of "Anti-Electrostatic" Hydrogen Bonding. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27020366.

Abstract
We show that carboxyl-functionalized ionic liquids (ILs) form doubly hydrogen-bonded cationic dimers (c+=c+) despite the repulsive forces between ions of like charge and competing hydrogen bonds between cation and anion (c+–a−). This structural motif as known for formic acid, the archetype of double hydrogen bridges, is present in the solid state of the IL 1−(carboxymethyl)pyridinium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide [HOOC−CH2−py][NTf2]. By means of quantum chemical calculations, we explored different hydrogen-bonded isomers of neutral (HOOC–(CH2)n–py+)2(NTf2−)2, single-charged (HOOC–(CH2)n–py+)2(NTf2−), and double-charged (HOOC– (CH2)n−py+)2 complexes for demonstrating the paradoxical case of “anti-electrostatic” hydrogen bonding (AEHB) between ions of like charge. For the pure doubly hydrogen-bonded cationic dimers (HOOC– (CH2)n−py+)2, we report robust kinetic stability for n = 1–4. At n = 5, hydrogen bonding and dispersion fully compensate for the repulsive Coulomb forces between the cations, allowing for the quantification of the two equivalent hydrogen bonds and dispersion interaction in the order of 58.5 and 11 kJmol−1, respectively. For n = 6–8, we calculated negative free energies for temperatures below 47, 80, and 114 K, respectively. Quantum cluster equilibrium (QCE) theory predicts the equilibria between cationic monomers and dimers by considering the intermolecular interaction between the species, leading to thermodynamic stability at even higher temperatures. We rationalize the H-bond characteristics of the cationic dimers by the natural bond orbital (NBO) approach, emphasizing the strong correlation between NBO-based and spectroscopic descriptors, such as NMR chemical shifts and vibrational frequencies.

Abstract
The review considers the features of the processes of the electrochemical synthesis of nanostructures in ionic liquids (ILs), including the production of carbon nanomaterials, silicon and germanium nanoparticles, metallic nanoparticles, nanomaterials and surface nanostructures based on oxides. In addition, the analysis of works on the synthesis of nanoscale polymer films of conductive polymers prepared using ionic liquids by electrochemical methods is given. The purpose of the review is to dwell upon an aspect of the applicability of ILs that is usually not fully reflected in modern literature, the synthesis of nanostructures (including unique ones that cannot be obtained in other electrolytes). The current underestimation of ILs as an electrochemical medium for the synthesis of nanomaterials may limit our understanding and the scope of their potential application. Another purpose of our review is to expand their possible application and to show the relative simplicity of the experimental part of the work.

Abstract
Hydroxyl-functionalized ionic liquids (ILs) represent a new interesting class of ILs where hydrogen bonds (HBs) play an important role: here, "typical" HBs between cations and anions (ca) are competing with "atypical" HBs connecting pairs of cations (cc). We study the equilibrium and kinetics of (cc) and (ca) HBs in 1-(n-hydroxyalkyl)-pyridinium bis(trifluoromethlysulfonyl)imide [HOCnPy][NTf2] ILs by means of molecular dynamics simulations. (cc) HBs are found to be between 0.96 and 3.76 kJ mol-1 stronger than their (ca) counterparts, depending on the alkyl chain length. HB lifetimes and kinetics are analyzed by means of HB population and reactive flux correlation functions. Essentially, four different HB lifetimes have to be considered, spanning about 3 orders of magnitude, each valid in its own right and each associated with different aspects of HB breaking and HB reformation. The long-time limiting behavior of the HB population correlation function is controlled by diffusion of the ions and can be quantitatively described by analytical expressions. The short-time HB behavior is tied to the localized dynamics of the hydroxyl group exploring its local solvation environment. A minimalist kinetic two-domain model is introduced to realistically describe the time evolution of the HB population correlation function for both (ca) and (cc) HBs over 5 orders of magnitude. By employing the reactive flux method, we determine the kinetics of HB breaking, unaffected by diffusion processes. We determine both, the ultrafast upper boundary and the average rate of HB breaking, allowing recrossing-events during the transient relaxation time period. For sufficiently long alkyl chains, all those computed HB lifetimes indicate a higher kinetic stability of (cc) HBs over (ca) HBs; for short chains, it is vice-versa.

Abstract
Hydrogen bonds (HBs) play a crucial role in the physicochemical properties of ionic liquids (ILs). To date, HBs between cations and anions (Ca-An) or between cations (Ca-Ca) in ILs have been reported extensively. Here, we provided DFT evidence for the existence of HBs between anions (An-An) in the IL 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-3-methylimidazolium 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)imidazolide [HEMIm][HEIm]. The thermodynamic stabilities of anionic, cationic, and H2O dimers together with ionic pairs were studied using potential energy scans. The results show that the cation-anion pair is the most stable one, while the HB in the anionic dimer possesses similar thermodynamic stability to the water dimer. The further geometric, spectral and electronic structure analyses demonstrate that the inter-anionic HB meets the general theoretical criteria of traditional HBs. The strength order of four HBs in complexes is cation-anion pair > H2O dimer ≈ cationic dimer > anionic dimer. The energy decomposition analysis indicates that induction and dispersion interactions are the crucial factors to overcome strong Coulomb repulsions, forming inter-anionic HBs. Finally, the presence of inter-anionic HBs in the ionic cluster has been confirmed by a global minimum search for a system containing two ionic pairs. Even though hydroxyl-functionalized cations are more likely to form HBs with anions, there are still inter-anionic HBs between hydroxyl groups in the low-lying structures. Our studies broaden the understanding of HBs in ionic liquids and support the recently proposed concept of anti-electrostatic HBs.

Abstract
We measured the deuteron quadrupole coupling constants (DQCCs) for hydroxy-functionalized ionic liquids (ILs) with varying alkyl chain length over the temperature range between 60 and 200 K by means of solid-state NMR spectroscopy. For all temperatures, the 2H spectra show two DQCCs representing different types of hydrogen bonds. Higher values, ranging from 220 to 250 kHz, indicate weaker hydrogen bonds between cation and anion (c-a), and lower values varying from 165 to 210 kHz result from stronger hydrogen bonds between the OD groups of cations (c-c), in agreement with recent observations in infrared, neutron diffraction, and NMR studies. We observed different temperature dependencies for (c-a) and (c-c) hydrogen bonding. From the static pattern of the 2H spectra at the lowest temperatures, we derived the true DQCCs being up to 20 kHz larger than recently reported values measured at the glass transition temperature. We were able to freeze the librational motions of the hydrogen bonds in the ILs. The temperature dependence of the (c-a) and (c-c) cluster populations in the glassy state is opposite to that observed in the liquid state, partly anticipating the behavior of ILs tending to crystallize.

Abstract
Atomic force microscopy has been used to measure the lubricity of a series of ionic liquids (ILs) at mica surfaces in the boundary friction regime. A previously unreported cation bilayer structure is detected at the IL-mica interface due to the formation of H-bonds between the hydroxy-functionalized cations [(c-c) H-bonds], which enhances the ordering of the ions in the boundary layer and improves the lubrication. The strength of the cation bilayer structure is controlled by altering the strength of (c-c) H-bonding via changes in the hydroxyalkyl chain length, the cation charge polarizability, and the coordination strength of the anions. This reveals a new means of controlling IL boundary nanostructure via H-bonding between ions of the same charge, which can impact diverse applications, including surface catalysis, particle stability, electrochemistry, etc.
