Interfacial Nanostructure and Hydrogen Bond Networks of Choline Chloride and Glycerol Mixtures Probed with X-ray and Vibrational Spectroscopies
The molecular distribution at the liquid-vapor interface and evolution of the hydrogen bond interactions in mixtures of glycerol and choline chloride are investigated using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Raman spectroscopy. Nanoscale depth profiles of supersaturated deep eutectic solvent (DES) mixtures up to ~2 nm measured by ambient-pressure XPS show the enhancement of choline cation (Ch + ) concentration by a factor of 2 at the liquid-vapor interface compared to the bulk. In addition, Raman spectral analysis of a wide range of DES mixtures reveals the conversion of gauche-conformer Ch + into the anti-conformer in relatively lower ChCl concentrations. Finally, the depletion of Ch + from the interface (probing depth = 0.4 nm) is demonstrated by aerosol-based velocity map imaging XPS measurements of glyceline and water mixtures. The nanostructure of liquid-vapor interfaces and structural rearrangement by hydration can provide critical insight into the molecular origin of the deep eutectic behavior and gas-capturing application of DESs.

High Pressure–Temperature Study of MgF 2 , CaF 2 , and BaF 2 by Raman Spectroscopy: Phase Transitions and Vibrational Properties of AF 2 Difluorides
The phase transition of AF 2 difluorides strongly depends on pressure, temperature, and cationic radius. Here, we have investigated the phase transition of three difluorides, including MgF 2 , CaF 2 , and BaF 2 , at simultaneously high pressures and temperatures using Raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction in externally heated diamond anvil cells up to 55 GPa at 300–700 K. Rutile-type difluoride MgF 2 with a small cationic radius undergoes a transition to the CaCl 2 -type phase at 9.9(1) GPa and 300 K, to the HP-PdF 2 -type phase at 21.0(2) GPa, and to the cotunnite-type phase at 44.2(2) GPa. The phase transition pressure to the HP-PdF 2 and cotunnite structure at 300 K for our single crystal was found to be higher than that in previous studies using polycrystalline samples. Elevating the temperature increases the transition pressure from rutile- to the CaCl 2 -type phase but has a negative influence on the transition pressure when MgF 2 transforms from the HP-PdF 2 - to cotunnite-type phase. Meanwhile, the transition pressure from the CaCl 2 - to HP-PdF 2 -type phase for MgF 2 was identified to be independent of the temperature. Raman peaks suspected to belong to the α-PbO 2 -type phase were observed at 14.6–21.0(1) GPa and 400–700 K. At 300 K, difluorides CaF 2 and BaF 2 in the fluorite structure with larger cationic radii transform to the cotunnite-type phase at 9.6(3) and 3.0(3) GPa at 300 K, respectively, and BaF 2 further undergoes a transition to the Ni 2 In-type phase at 15.5(4) GPa. For both CaF 2 and BaF 2 , elevating the temperature leads to a lower transition pressure from fluorite- to the cotunnite-type phase but has little influence on the transition to the Ni 2 In structure. Raman data provide valuable insights for mode Grüneisen parameters. We note that the mode Grüneisen parameters for both difluorides and dioxides vary linearly with the cation radius. Further calculations for the mode Grüneisen parameters at high pressures for MgF 2 , CaF 2 , and BaF 2 yield a deeper understanding of the thermodynamic properties of the difluorides.
