Anionic Dimers of Fluorinated Alcohols

posted on 2022-05-24, 20:07 authored by Konrad Koszinowski, Rene RahrtNegative-ion mode electrospray ionization
of solutions of ethanol (RF0OH), 2-fluoroethanol (RF1OH), 2,2-difluoroethanol (RF2OH), and/or 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol
(RF3OH) produces anionic dimers of the types (RFnO)2H– and (RFnO)(RFn+1O)H–. The exchange reactions of these anionic dimers with the neutral
alcohols are examined in a quadrupole-ion trap to extract kinetic
data, from which the reaction Gibbs energies are obtained. In all
cases, the formation of anionic dimers containing the more highly
fluorinated alcohols is favored. Quantum chemical calculations confirm
this trend and, besides affording structural data, also determine
the dissociation energies of the anionic dimers. These dissociation
energies are much higher than those of the corresponding neutral dimers
and increase further for the more highly fluorinated alcohols due
to the stronger hydrogen-bond donor ability of the latter. The present
results on the interaction of individual alkoxide anions and neutral
alcohol molecules contribute to a better understanding of the association
of the fluorinated alcohols in solution.
