1-Hexyl-3-methylimidazolium tricyanomethanide, CAS: 1365535-17-6

Key Applications:

• Electrochemical Systems

• • Used as a non‑volatile electrolyte or electrolyte additive in supercapacitors and advanced batteries.
  • TCM⁻ anion supports high ionic conductivity and wide electrochemical stability, improving device performance.
  • Suitable for ionic liquid‑based redox couples and ionic liquid‑modified electrodes.
• Catalysis & Reaction Media

• • Serves as a polar, aprotic reaction medium for organic synthesis requiring low nucleophilicity.
  • Enhances transition‑metal catalysis, especially in reactions sensitive to coordinating anions.
  • Supports phase‑transfer catalysis due to its hydrophobic cation–anion pairing.
• Thermal & Chemical Processing

• • Employed in high‑temperature extraction and separation processes where conventional solvents degrade.
  • Useful in ionothermal synthesis of porous materials, including MOFs and carbon frameworks.
• Materials Science

• • Incorporated into polymer electrolytes, ion gels, and ionic‑liquid‑modified membranes to enhance conductivity and mechanical stability.
  • Used in surface modification and thin‑film fabrication, where TCM⁻ provides tunable polarity and low coordinating behavior.
• Solvent & Extraction Applications

• • Effective in liquid–liquid extraction of metal ions, aromatic compounds, and hydrophobic organics.
  • TCM⁻ anion improves selectivity in separations involving π‑rich or electron‑deficient species.
• Antistatic & Conductive Additives

• • Added to coatings, lubricants, and polymer blends to impart conductivity, ESD control, and thermal stability.
