Abstract
The dissolving process of polyols in salt solutions (TBAF, TBAC, TBAB, TBAI, TMAF) and imidazolium-based ionic liquids ([C2 mim][OAc], [C2 mim][Et2 PO4 ], [C2 mim][EtSO4 ], [C2 mim][SCN]) is exemplarily studied by IR spectroscopy. Vibrational bands and their shifts in the OH stretch region reveal crucial information for the dissolved polyol interacting with the anions of the salt solutions and ionic liquids. The well-chosen set of ionic solutions confirms the linear relation between the OH-stretch frequencies and the solubility capacity of the salt solutions. Likewise, it also provides an explanation of the dissolving process at molecular level. Notably, the solubility capacities of the anions in the salt solutions follow the well-known Hofmeister series. This phenomenon can be understood on the basis of the disruption power of the anions and the specific size ratio of the anion/cation combinations.
