Abstract
This study investigates a salt design principle for aqueous battery electrolytes by combining chaotropic ions, guanidium cations (Gdm) and bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide anions (TFSI), forming GdmTFSI. This salt's crystal structure was solved via single-crystal X-ray diffraction and characterized using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. Study reveals that GdmTFSI salt disrupts the hydrogen bonding network of aqueous solutions, impacting water reactivity at electrochemical interfaces.
