    Abstract:
    Bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)amide (TFSA), hexafluorophosphate (PF(6)(-)), and iodide salts of 1-ferrocenyl-3-alkylimidazolium were prepared and their thermal and physical properties, including the dependence on alkyl chain length (methyl-hexadecyl), were investigated. The TFSA salts were highly viscous ionic liquids with melting points around room temperature. 1-Ferrocenyl-4-methyltriazolium salts were also prepared for comparison. The ferrocenylimidazolium and ferrocenyltriazolium cations showed redox waves for both the ferrocenyl moiety and the azolium moiety and exhibited corresponding charge-transfer bands at around 330 nm, which were analyzed using the Marcus-Hush model. Crystal structure determinations at low temperature revealed that the PF(6) and iodide salts form layerlike structures composed of ionic layers of the charged moieties. The TFSA salt exhibited short hydrogen-bond-like intermolecular contacts between the hydrogen atoms of the cation and oxygen atoms of the anion.
