Abstract
Reactive linear oligo(ethylene oxides) containing terminal secondary hydroxyl groups and secondary amino groups combined with nitrogen heterocyclic fragments are synthesized by the reaction of oligo(oxyethylene glycol) α,ω-diglycidyl ether (М = 1.0 × 103) with 1-(3-aminopropyl)imidazole, 2-aminopyridine, or 2-amino-3-methylpyridine. Protonation of the synthesized compounds by ethanesulfonic acid and p-toluenesulfonic acid at their different ratios is studied. This process makes it possible to obtain oligomeric linear protic cationic ionic liquids capable of condensation. The proton conductivity of oligomeric ionic liquids is investigated under anhydrous conditions in the temperature range of 40–120°С. The highest conductivity (1.36 × 10–3 S/cm) is attained in the case of methylpyridinium ethanesulfonate oligomeric ionic liquid at 120°С. These compounds are thermally stable to a temperature of 250–290°С. They show promise for the synthesis of polymeric analogs of block ionic liquids suitable in the production of electrochemical devices for various purposes.
