Abstract:
In this paper, fluorinated compounds based on sulfolane, cyclopentanone, and gamma-butyrolactone are studied computationally, focusing on their applicability in electrochemical devices and acid-base-related studies. Candidates for solvents with (1) high polarity, (2) good electrochemical stability, and (3) low basicity were searched for. Some of the compounds are studied here for the first time. Electrochemical stabilities, dielectric constants, boiling points, basicities, and lipophilicities were estimated using DFT and COSMO-RS methods with empirical corrections. The effect of fluorination on these properties as well as the bond parameters was studied. The possible synthesis routes of the proposed compounds are outlined. Some molecules display a combination of estimated properties favorable for a solvent, although none of the studied compounds are expected to surpass acetonitrile and propylene carbonate by the width of the electrochemical stability window.
