In this work, a series of trifluoroethyl aliphatic carboxylates with different carbon-chain lengths in acyl group are prepared and investigated as the co-solvents for the carbonate-based electrolyte of lithium-ion batteries. The trifluoroethyl aliphatic carbonates are synthesized by a modified one-step approach, using aliphatic carboxylic acid and trifluoroethanol as the raw materials (molar ratio, 1.2:1), hydrogen ion exchange resin as the catalyst and silica gel drier as the de-hydration. The structure and electrochemical properties of the final products have been characterized by FTIR, 1H NMR, GC-MS, viscosity, conductivity meter and electrochemical measurements. The structure characterizations show that the final products have high purity. Electrochemical tests present that the co-solvents are able to improve the electrochemical performances of graphite electrode at low temperature. In particular, we find that an addition of trifluoroethyl n-hexanoate (TFENH) into 1 M LiPF6/EC + EMC electrolyte can significantly decrease the Li de-intercalation potential of graphite by 540 mV and achieve a high capacity retention of 92% at 218 K. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements indicate that the observed performance improvement at low temperature is associated with the decreased surface film resistance (R SEI) by the addition of co-solvents.

Thiolysis of p-nitrophenyl esters (acetate to decanoate) by the anion of 2-mercaptoethanol (ME) is catalyzed by micelles of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) in aqueous solution. At fixed [ME], the observed rate constants (k(obs)) show saturation with

The acid-catalyzed reactions of trifluorodiazoethane with alcohols, phenols, thiols, and carboxylic acids are reported.The yield data for these trifluoroethyl derivatives suggest a simple, and in many cases, quantitative method for introduction of a fluorine tagging group.The 19F chemical shifts indicate that most functional groups (e.g., phenols, alcohols, etc.) have fairly well resolved chemical shifts regions.In addition, paramagnetic shift reagents have been utilized to selectively differentiate carboxylic acids from other active hydrogen functional groups.
