Abstract

The invention concerns ionic compounds in which the anionic load has been delocalized. A compound disclosed by the invention is comprised of an amide or one of its salts, including an anionic portion combined with at least one cationic portion M+m in sufficient numbers to ensure overall electronic neutrality; the compound is further comprised of M as a hydroxonium, a nitrosonium NO+, an ammonium —NH4+, a metallic cation with the valence m, an organic cation with the valence m, or an organometallic cation with the valence m. The anionic portion matches the formula RF—SOx—N−Z, wherein RF is a perfluorinated group, x is 1 or 2, and Z is an electroattractive substituent. The compounds can be used notably for ionic conducting materials, electronic conducting materials, colorants, and the catalysis of various chemical reactions.

Description

  • The present invention relates to ionic compounds in which the anionic charge is delocalized, and mere uses. [0001]
  • It is known and it is particularly interesting to introduce ionic groups in molecules or organic polymers having various functions. Coulombic stresses correspond, indeed, to the stronger interactions which are available at the molecular level, and the ionic groups modify in an utmost manner the molecules to which they are bonded. Coloring matters which are made soluble in water by means of sulfonate or carboxylate functions may be mentioned. [0002]
  • However, the groups of this types, —CO[0003] 2 − 1/mMm1 or —SO3 − 1/mMm+, are not dissociated, and they do not induce solubility in solvents other than water or certain highly polar protic solvents such as light alcohols, which considerably restrict the scope of their utilization.
  • On the other hand, salts of the compounds [R[0004] FSO2—N—SO2RF]− 1/mMm+ in which RF is a perfluorinated group and Mm+ is a cation of valence m+ are known, which are soluble and are dissociated in organic aprotic media or solvating polymers. It is however considered that the existence of two perfluoroalkylsulfonyl groups (in particular the existence of fluorine atoms on the α atom of carbon of each sulfonyl group) which exert an important attracting power on the electrons of the ionic charge, is a necessary condition to obtaining properties of solubility and dissociation. For example, the pKa of the acid H[CF3SO2—N—SO2CF3] is only 1.95, which compares to that of the non-fluorinated acid CH3SO3H (pKa=0.3) and is clearly inferior to that of perfluorinated acid CF3SO3H (pKa<−9) because of the basic character of the central nitrogen atom with respect to the oxygen atom of sulfonic acids.
  • Surprisingly, the inventors have found that the excellent properties of solubility and dissociation of the ionic groups —SO[0005] 2—N—SO2— were maintained when a single sulfonated group has fluorine atoms on atoms which are adjacent to the sulfur atom, giving an extremely wide choice of functional molecules. In a manner also quite unexpected, it has been noted that it was possible for obtaining the same properties, to omit the group —SO2 bound to the non-perfluorinated group provided that the group which is directly bound to nitrogen has a Hammett parameter σ* higher than 0.6. By way of comparison, the Hammett parameters σ* of a group —SO2— bound to a non-perfluorinated group is 3.5 and 4.55 for a group CF3SO2—.
  • The present inventors have also found that the sulfonyl —SO[0006] 2— groups could be replaced, with minor variations of properties, by sulfinyl —SO— or phosphonyl —PO2═ groups.
  • It is consequently an object of the present invention to provide a family of ionic compounds having a good solubility and a good dissociation, without having to rely on complex modifications of the starting molecule. The precursors of the molecule of the invention are found in the form of derivatives of sulfonic acids or of amine groups on the one hand, and derivatives of perfluorosulfonyl types on the other hand, which for the most part are industrial products and/or are easily accessible. In addition, it should be noted that a decrease of the perfluorinated fraction in the compounds of the invention enables to reduce the production costs of said compounds and consequently the cost of the applications in which they are involved. [0007]

Among these cations, those which give an ionic compound according to the invention in which the melting point is lower than 150° C. are particularly preferred. Such a compound having a low melting point is particularly useful for the preparation of materials with protonic conduction. A material with protonic conduction which is particularly preferred comprises a compound according to the invention in which the cation is formed by addition of a proton on the nitrogen of an imidazoline, an imidazole or a triazole, as well as the nitrogenated corresponding base in a proportion of 0.5 to 10 in molar ratio.
  • A compound of the invention in which the cation M is a cationic group having a bond —N═N—, —N═N[0038] +, a sulfonium group, an iodonium group, or a substituted or non-substituted arene-ferrocenium cation, possibly incorporated in a polymeric network, is interesting insofar as it can be activated by a source of actinic energy of suitable wavelength. Particular examples of such compounds include those in which the cation is a diaryliodonium, dialkylayliodonium, triarylsulfonium, trialkylaryl sulfonium, or phenacyl-dialkyl sulfonium radical which is substituted or non-substituted. The above cations may be part of a polymer chain.
  • The cation M of a compound of the invention may include a group 2,2′[azobis(2-2′-imidazolinio-2-yl)propane][0039] 2+ or 2,2′-azobis(2-amidiniopropane)2+. The compound of the invention is then capable of releasing, under the action of heat or an ionizing radiation, radicals which enable initiation of polymerization, cross-linking reactions or, in a general manner, chemical reactions involving free radicals. Moreover, these compounds are easily soluble in polymeric and monomeric organic solvents even of low polarity, contrary to the derivatives of anions of the type Cl− normally associated with this type of compounds. On the other hand, they have a negligible vapour pressure contrary to the other radical initiators of the peroxide or azo type, which is a considerable advantage for the preparation of thin polymer films, the volatility of the initiator having as a consequence a bad polymerization or cross-linking of the surface of the film.
  • In an embodiment of the invention, R[0040] F is a fluorine atom or a pair of halogenated alkyl radicals preferably having from 1 to 12 carbon atoms, or a pair of halogenated alkylaryl radicals preferably having from 6 to 9 carbon atoms. The pair of halogenated alkyl radicals may be a linear or branched radical. In particular, radicals in which the carbon atom which will be in α position with respect to the group —SOx— carries at least one fluorine atom, may be cited. Examples of such radicals include RACF2—, RACF2CF2—, RACF2CF(CF3)— or CF3C(RA)F— in which RA represents a non-perhalogenated organic radical, an alkyl group, an aryl group, an alkylaryl or arylalkyl group; a group comprising at least one ethylenic unsaturation and/or a condensable group and/or a dissociable group; a mesomorphous group; a chromophorous group; a self-doped electronic conductive polymer; a hydrolyzable alkoxysilane; a polymer chain carrying grafts including a carbonyl group, a sulfonyl group, a thionyl group or a phosphonyl group; a group capable of trapping free radicals such as a crowded phenol or a quinone; a dissociating dipole such as an amide, a sulfonamide or a nitrile; a redox pair such as a disulfide, a thioamide, a ferrocene, a pheno-thiazine, a bis(dialkylaminoaryl) group, a nitroxide or an aromatic imide; a complexing ligand; a zwitterion, an optically or biologically active amino acid or a polypeptide; a chiral group.
  • The choice of substituent Z enables to adjust the properties of a compound of the invention. [0041]
  • A particular family of compounds of the invention is the one in which Z represents a group R[0042] DY—. The compounds in which Y is —SO2— are especially preferred.
  • In an embodiment, R[0043] D is selected from alkyl, alkenyl, oxa-alkyl, oxa-alkenyl, aza-alkyl, aza-alkenyl, thia-alkyl or thia-alkenyl radicals having from 1 to 24 carbon atoms, or from aryl, arylalkyl, alkylaryl or alkenylaryl radicals having from 5 to 24 carbon atoms.
  • In another embodiment, R[0044] D is selected from alkyl or alkenyl radicals having from 1 to 12 carbon atoms and possibly comprising at least one heteroatom O, N or S in the main chain or in a lateral chain, and/or possibly carrying a hydroxy group, a carbonyl group, an amino group or a carboxyl group.
  • A substituent R[0045] D may be a polymer radical, for example an oligo(oxyalkylene) radical. The compound of the invention then appears in the form of a polymer carrying an ionic group —[Y—N—SOx—RF]−, M+.
  • R[0046] D may be a recurring unit of a polymer, for example an oxyalkylene unit or a styrene unit. The compound of the invention then appears in the form of an polymer in which at least part of the recurring units carry a lateral group on which an ionic group —[Y—N—SOx—RF]−, M+ is bonded. By way of example, a poly(oxyalkylene) in which at least certain oxyalkylene units carry a substituent —[Y—N—SOx—RF]−, M+, or a polystyrene in which at least certain styrene units carry a substituent —[Y—N—SOx—RF]−, M+, for example [styrenyl-Y—N—S(O)x—RF]−, may be mentioned.
  • A particular category of compounds of the invention comprises the compounds in which the substituent R[0047] D has at least one anionic ionophoric group and/or at least one cationic ionophoric group. The anionic group may for example be a carboxylate (—CO2 −), a sulfonate function (—SO3 −), a sulfonimide function (—SO2NSO2—) or a sulfonamide function (—SO2N—). The cationic ionophoric group may for example be an iodonium, sulfonium, oxonium, ammonium, amidinium, guanidinium, pyridinium, imidazolium, imidazolinium, triazolium, phosphonium or carbonium group. The cationic ionophoric group may totally or partially play the role of the cation M.
  • When R[0048] D includes at least ethylenic unsaturation and/or a condensable group and/or a group which is dissociable by thermal or photochemical means or by ionic dissociation, the compounds of the invention are reactive compounds which may be subject to polymerizations, cross-linkings or condensations, optionally with other monomers. They may also be used to fix ionophoric groups on the polymers carrying a suitable reactive function.
  • A substituent R[0049] D may be a mesomorphous group or a chromophorous group or a self-doped electronically conductive polymer or a hydrolyzable alkoxysilane.
  • A substituent R[0050] D may include a group capable of trapping free radicals, for example, a hindered phenol or a quinone.
  • A substituent R[0051] D may also include a bipolar dissociating agent, for example, an amide function, a sulfonamide function or a nitrile function.
  • A substituent R[0052] D may also include a redox couple, for example, a disulfide group, a thioamide group, a ferrocene group, a phenothiazine group, a bis(dialkylaminoaryl) group, a nitroxide group or an aromatic imide group.
  • A substituent R[0053] D may also include a complexing ligand or an optically active group.
  • Another category of compounds of the invention comprises compounds in which R[0054] D—Y— represent an amino acid, or an optically or biologically active polypeptide.
  • According to a variant, a compound of the invention comprises a substituent R[0055] D which represents a radical having a valency v higher than 2, itself including at least one group RF—S(O)x—N—Y—. In this case, the negative charges present on the anionic part of the compound of the invention should be compensated by an appropriate number of cations or ionophorous cationic groups M.
  • When a compound of the present invention corresponds to the formula R[0056] F—S(O)x—N—Z, in which Z is an electroattractive group which is not bonded to the nitrogen which carries the negative charge by a group Y, Z is advantageously selected from the group consisting of —CN, —OCnF2n+1, —OC2F4H, —SCnF2n+1 and —SC2F4H, —O—CF═CF2, —SCF═CF2, n being a whole number from 1 to 8. Z may also be a radical CnF2n+1CH2—, n being a whole number from 1 to 8, or among the heterocyclic compounds, in particular those derived from pyridine, pyrazine, pyrimidine, oxadiazole, thiadiazole, which are fluorinated or non-fluorinated. Z may also represent a recurring unit of a polymer. The compound of the invention is then in the form of a polymer in which at least part of the recurring units carry a lateral group on which an ionic group —[(N—SOx—RF)−, M+] is fixed. By way of example, a polymer comprising one of the following recurring units may be mentioned:
    Figure US20020009650A1-20020124-C00001
  • or a polyzwitterion of a conductive polymer which is a self-doped polyaniline in which the recurring unit is: [0057]
    Figure US20020009650A1-20020124-C00002
  • The compounds of the invention may be obtained, by a process in which a compound R[0058] FSOx—L is reacted with a compound [A—N—Z]n− m nMm+, RF, x, M and Z being as previously defined, L representing an electronegative starting group such as a halogen, a N-imidazoyl radical, a N-triazoyl radical, a radical RFSOx+1— and A represents a cation Mm+, a trialkylsilyl group, a trialkylgermanyl group, a trialkylstannyl group or a tertiaryalkyl group, in which the alkyl substituents have from 1 to 6 carbon atoms. By way of example, the reaction of a fluorosulfonyl fluoride with a bi-salt of cyanamide according to the following reaction scheme may be mentioned:
  • FSO2—F+[NaNCN]−Na+
    Figure US20020009650A1-20020124-P00900
    NaF+[FSO2—NCN]−Na+.
  • The reaction of a substituted aniline with trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride may also be mentioned. [0059]
  • The compounds in which Z represents R[0060] DY— may be obtained by a process in which a compound RD—Y—L is reacted with a compound [RFSOX—N—A]n− mnMm+. By way of example of such a process, the reaction of a perfluorosulfonamide or one of its salts with a sulfonyl halide may be mentioned.
  • The use of a compound [A—N—Z][0061] n− mnMm+ in which A is a tertiary alkyl group is advantageous, because such a group is a proton precursor by formation of the corresponding alkene. The use of a trialkylsilyl is especially interesting when the starting group is a fluorine atom, by reason of the very high stability of the bond F—Si.
  • When there is used a compound [A—N—Z][0062] n− mnMm+ in which A is the proton, it is advantageous to carry out the reaction in the presence of a tertiary base or crowded base T capable of forming the salt L−(HT+) by combination of the proton, in order to promote the formation of the compound of the invention. The base may be selected from alkylamines (for example triethylamine, diisopropylamine, quinuclidine), 1,4-diazobicyclo[2,2,2]octane (DABCO); pyridines (for example pyridine, alkylpyridines, dialkylaminopyridines); imidazoles (for example N-alkylimidazoles, imidazo[1,1-a]pyridine); amidines (for example 1,5-diazabicyclo[4,3,0]non-5-ene (DBN), 1,8-diazabicyclo[5,4,0]undec-7-ene (DBU)); guanidines (for example tetramethyl guanidine, 1,3,4,7,8-hexahydro-1-methyl-2H-pyrimido[1,2-a]pyrimidine (HPP).
  • By way of example of such a process, the process in which a sulfonyl chloride R[0063] DSO2Cl is reacted with a perfluorosulfonamide in the presence of DABCO may be mentioned.
  • A compound according to the invention may also be obtained by reacting perfluorosulfonic acid or one of its salts with a compound (R[0064] 1)3P═N—Z in which the Ri represent independently from one another an alkyl radical, an aryl radical or a dialkylamino radical. In the same manner, an acid RDSOx—OH or one of its salts may be reacted with a compound (Ri)3P═N—SOxRF. By way of example, the reaction of a sodium alkylsulfonate with RFSO2N═P(C6H5)3 may be mentioned.
  • The cation of a compound obtained according to either one of the processes described above may be replaced by known processes of cation exchange, either by precipitations or selective extractions, or by the use of ion exchange resins. [0065]
  • In addition, the substituent R[0066] D of a compound of the invention may be modified by means of known reactions. For example, a substituent RD which comprises an allyl group may be converted by reaction with a peroxide to give an epoxidized substituent RD. A group —NHR may be converted into a vinylester group by reaction with a strong base such as potassium tert-butoxide, then with vinylchloroformate. The processes enabling to carry out these modifications and others are available to those skilled in the art. Of course, the functions carried by radical RA and R which could interfere with the reactions leading to the preparation of the compounds of the invention may be temporarily protected by means of known techniques. For example, an amine function may be protected by a group t-BOC (tertiobutoxycarbonyl) which is stable in the presence of bases T but which is easily removed by treatment in an acid medium.
  • The ionic compounds of the present invention comprise at least one ionophoric group on which substituents which can vary to a large extent are fixed. Taking into account the large choice possible for the substituents, the compounds of the invention enable the production of properties of ionic conduction in most of the organic media, liquids or polymers having even a low polarity. The applications are important in the field of electrochemistry, in particular for storing energy in primary or secondary generators, in supercapacitances, in combustible batteries and in electroluminescent diodes. The compatibility of the ionic compounds of the invention with polymers or organic liquids enable to induce noted anti-static properties, even when the content of ionic compound is extremely low. The compounds of the invention which are polymers, as well as polymer compounds obtained from the compounds of the invention having the property of polymerizing or co-polymerizing, show the properties mentioned above with the advantage of having an immovable anionic charge. This is why another object of the present invention resides in an ionically conductive material consisting of an ionic compound of the present invention in solution in a solvent. [0067]
  • In an embodiment, the ionic compound used for the preparation of an ionically conductive material is selected from the compounds in which the cation is ammonium, or a cation derived from a metal, in particular lithium or potassium, zinc, calcium, metals of rare earths, or an organic cation, such as a substituted ammonium, an imidazolium, a triazolium, a pyridinium, a 4-dimethylamino-pyridinium, said cations optionally carrying a substituent on the carbon atoms of the cycle. The ionically conductive material thus obtained has an elevated conductivity and solubility in solvents, resulting from weak interactions between the positive charge and the negative charge. Its field of electrochemical stability is extended, and it is stable in reducing as well as oxidizing media. Moreover, the compounds which have an organic cation and a melting point lower than 150° C., in particular imidazolium, triazolium, pyridinium, 4-dimethylamino-pyridinium compounds have an intrinsic elevated conductivity, even in the absence of solvent, when they are in molten phase. [0068]
  • The materials with ionic conduction which incorporate a compound of the invention in which R[0069] F is a fluorine atom or a perhalogenated alkyl radical having from 1 to 12 carbon atoms, or a perhalogenated alkylaryl radical having from 6 to 9 carbon atoms are interesting to the extent that the low interactions between the atoms of fluorine of the chain result in high solubility and conductivity, even in the case where the remainder of the molecule contains groups having a tendency to give strong interactions such as conjugated aromatic radicals or zwitterions.
  • The choice of a compound of the invention in which R[0070] F is selected from the radicals RACF2—, RACF2CF2—, RACF2CF(CF3)— or CF3C(RA)F— enable it to very precisely adapt the properties of the ionically conductive material by selecting the substituent RA in an appropriate manner. In particular, they permit to rely, with a reduced number of fluorine atoms, on the properties of dissociation and of solubility inherent to the anionic charges of the perfluorinated systems. These groups are easily accessible from industrial products such as tetrafluoroethylene or tetrafluoropropylene. The reduced quantity of fluorine renders these compounds less susceptible to reduction by metals which are even electropositive, such as aluminum, magnesium or especially lithium.
  • The properties of the ionically conductive material may also be adapted by the choice of the substituent R[0071] D.
  • The choice for R[0072] A or RD of an alkyl group, an aryl group, an alkylaryl group or an arylalkyl group, enables to introduce into the ionically conductive material properties of mesogene type, in particular alkyl groups having from 6 to 20 carbon atoms, aryl-alkyl groups, in particular those containing the biphenyl entity which form phases of the liquid crystal type. Properties of conduction in phases of the liquid crystal, nematic, cholesteric or discotic types, are interesting for applications relating to optical posting or to reduce the mobility of anions in the electrolytes, in particular in polymer electrolytes, without affecting the mobility of the cations. This characteristic is important for applications in electrochemical generators, and particularly those involving lithium cations.
  • When the substituent R[0073] A is a mesomorphous group or a group comprising at least one ethylenic unsaturation and/or a condensable group and/or a group which is dissociable by thermal means, by photochemical means or by ionic dissociation, or when RD is a substituent containing one of these groups, the ionically conductive material easily forms polymers or copolymers which are polyelectrolytes, either intrinsically when the polymer carries solvating groups, or by addition of a polar solvent of a liquid or polymer type, or by mixture with such a solvent. These products have a conductivity which is solely due to the cations, which constitutes a property which is very useful in the applications of the electrochemical generator type. In low molar fraction in a copolymer, they produce antistatic properties which are stable and are little dependent on humidity, and promote the fixation of cationic coloring materials, this property being useful for textile fibres and lasers with coloring materials.
  • The presence of a substituent R[0074] A or RD which is a self-doped electronically conductive polymer improves the stability of the ionically conductive material as compared to outside agents. The conductivity is stable in time, even at elevated temperatures. In contact with metals, these materials give very low interface resistance and, in particular, protect ferrous metals or aluminum against corrosion.
  • When the substituent R[0075] A or RD is an hydrolyzable alkoxysilane, the ionically conductive material may form stable polymers by the simple mechanism of hydrolysis-condensation in the presence of water, thereby enabling treatment of oxide, silica, silicate, in particular glass surfaces to induce properties of surface conduction, antistatic properties, or to promote the adhesion of polar polymers.
  • When the substituent R[0076] A or RD is a group comprising a free radical trap such as a congested phenol or a quinone, the ionically conductive material has the following advantages and properties: it acts as an antioxidant with no volatility and being compatible with polar monomers and polymers, to which it additionally provides antistatic properties.
  • When the substituent R[0077] A or RD comprises a dissociating dipole such as an amide, a sulfonamide or a nitrile, the ionically conductive material has an improved conductivity in media with low or average polarity, in particular in solvating polymers, which enables to minimize, even to remove the addition of solvents or volatile plasticizing agents.
  • The presence of a substituent R[0078] A or RD which contains a redox couple such as a disulfide, a thioamide, a ferrocene, a pheno-thiazine, a bis(dialkylaminoaryl) group, a nitroxide, an aromatic imide, enables introduction into the ionically conductive material shuttle redox properties which are useful as an element for the protection and the equalization of the charge of electrochemical generators, in photoelectrochemical systems, in particular for converting light into electricity, in systems for modulating light of the electrochrome type.
  • The presence of a substituent R[0079] A or RD which is a complexing ligand in an ionically conductive material enables chelation of metallic cations, in particular those which possess an elevated charge (2, 3 and 4), in the form of a complex which is soluble in organic media, including aprotic media, and enable transportation of these cations in particular in the form of an anionic complex, in solvating polymers. The metallic cations of elevated charge are indeed immovable in solvating polymers. This type of complexing gives redox couples which are particularly stable, with certain cations of transition metals (Fe, Co . . . ) or certain rare earths (Ce, Eu . . . ).
  • The ionically conductive materials containing a compound of the invention in which R[0080] D is an alkyl or an alkenyl substituent which contains at least one heteroatom selected from O, N and S have a complexing and plasticizing property, in particular in polar polymers and especially polyethers. The heteroatoms N and S are selectively complexing for cations of transition metals, Zn and Pb.
  • When a substituent R[0081] D alkyl or alkenyl additionally carries an hydroxy group, a carbonyl group, an amino group, a carboxyl group, an isocyanate group or a thioisocyanate group, the ionic compound of the invention may give by polycondensation a polymer or copolymer and the ionically conductive material which contains such a polymer or copolymer shows polyelectrolyte properties.
  • The presence, in the ionically conductive material of the invention, of a compound in which R[0082] D is selected from radicals aryl, arylalkyl, alkylaryl or alkenylaryl, in which the lateral chains and/or the aromatic nuclei comprise heteroatoms such as nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur, improves dissociation and increases the possibility of forming complexes depending on the position of the heteroatom (pyridine), or of giving by duplicating oxidation conjugated polymers or copolymers (pyrrol, thiophene).
  • When the ionically conductive material contains a compound of the invention in which R[0083] D represents a recurring unit of a polymer chain, the material constitutes a polyelectrolyte.
  • A compound of the invention in which the substituent Z is selected from the group consisting of —OC[0084] nF2n+1, —OC2F4H, —SCnF2n+1 and —SC2F4H, —OCF═CF2, —SCF═CF2, n being a whole number from 1 to 8, is a precursor of stable monomers and polymers in particular towards oxygen even at temperatures higher than 80° C. when dealing with polymers. An ionically conductive material which contains such a compound is therefore particularly suitable as as electrolyte of a combustible battery.
  • An ionically conductive material of the present invention comprises an ionic compound of the invention in solution in a solvent. [0085]
  • The solvent may be an aprotic liquid solvent, a polar polymer or a mixture thereof. [0086]
  • The aprotic liquid solvent is selected for example among linear ethers and cyclic ethers, esters, nitriles, nitro derivatives, amides, sulfones, sulfolanes, alkylsulfamides and partially halogenated hydrocarbons. Particularly preferred solvents include diethylether, dimethoxyethane, glyme, tetrahydrofurane, dioxane, dimethyltetrahydrofurane, methylformate or ethylformate, propylene or ethylene carbonate, alkyl carbonates (such as dimethyl carbonate, diethyl carbonate and methylpropyl carbonate), butyrolactones, acetonitrile, benzonitrile, nitromethane, nitrobenzene, dimethylformamide, diethylformamide, N-methylpyrrolidone, dimethylsulfone, tetramethylene sulfone and tetraalkylsulfonamides having from 5 to 10 carbon atoms. [0087]
  • The polar polymer may also be selected from a cross-linked or non cross-linked solvating polymer, with or without grafted ionic groups. A solvating polymer is a polymer which includes solvating units containing at least one heteroatom selected from sulfur, oxygen, nitrogen and fluorine. By way of example of solvating polymers, there may be mentioned polymers with linear structure, comb or block type, which may or may not form a network, based on poly(ethylene oxide), or copolymers containing an ethylene oxide, propylene oxide or allylglycidylether unit, polyphorphazenes, cross-linked network based on polyethylene glycol cross-linked with isocyanates, or networks obtained by polycondensation and carrying groups which permit the incorporation of cross-linkable groups. Block copolymers in which certain blocks carry functions which have redox properties may also be mentioned. Of course, the above list is not limiting, and all the polymers having solvating properties may also be used. [0088]
  • An ionically conductive material of the present invention may simultaneously comprise an aprotic liquid solvent selected from the above-mentioned aprotic liquid solvents and a polar polymer solvent comprising units containing at least one heteroatom selected from sulfur, nitrogen, oxygen and fluorine. It may comprise 2 to 98% liquid solvent. By way of example of such a polar polymer, polymers which mainly contain units derived from acrylonitrile, vinylidene fluoride, N-vinylpyrolidone or methyl methacrylate may be mentioned. The proportion of aprotic liquid in the solvent may vary from 2% (corresponding to a plasticized solvent) to 98% (corresponding to a gelled solvent). [0089]
  • An ionically conductive material of the present invention may additionally contain a salt commonly used in the prior art for preparing an ionically conductive material. Among the salts which may be used in admixture with an ionic compound according to the invention, a salt selected from the perfluoroalcanesulfonates, bis(perfluoroalkylsulfonyl)imides, bis(perfluoroalkylsulfonyl)methanes and tris(perfluoroalkylsulfonyl)methanes is particularly preferred. [0090]
  • Of course, an ionically conductive material of the invention may additionally contain the additives known to be used with this type of material, for example mineral or organic charges in the form of a powder or fibres. [0091]
  • An ionically conductive material of the invention may be used as an electrolyte in an electrochemical generator. It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide an electrochemical generator comprising a negative electrode and a positive electrode, both being separated by an electrolyte, wherein the electrolyte is an ionically conductive material as defined above. According to a particular embodiment, such a generator comprises a negative electrode consisting of metallic lithium, or one of its alloys, optionally in the form of nanometric dispersion in lithium oxide, or a double nitride of lithium and a transition metal, or an oxide with low potential having the general formula Li[0092] 1+y+x/3Ti2−/3O4 (0≦x≦1, 0≦y≦1), or carbon and carbonated products resulting from pyrolysis of organic materials. According to another embodiment, the generator comprises a positive electrode selected from vanadium oxide VOx (2≦x≦2,5), LiV3O8, LiyNi1−xCOxO2, (0≦x≦1; 0≦y≦1), magnesium spinels LiyMn1−xMxO2 (M=Cr, Al, V, Ni, 0≦x≦0,5; 0≦y≦2), organic polydisulfides, FeS, FeS2, ferric sulfate Fe2(SO4)3, phosphates and phosphosilicates of iron and of lithium of olivine structure, or products wherein iron is substituted by manganese, used alone or in admixtures. The collector of the positive electrode is preferably aluminum.
  • An ionically conductive material of the present invention may also be used in a supercapacitance. Another object of the present invention is consequently a supercapacitance utilizing at least one carbon electrode with high specific surface, or an electrode containing a redox polymer, in which the electrolyte is an ionically conductive material as defined above. [0093]
  • An ionically conductive material of the present invention may also be used for the p or n doping of a polymer with electronic conduction and this use constitutes another object of the present invention. [0094]
  • In addition, an ionically conductive material of the present invention may be used as an electrolyte in an electrochrome device. An electrochrome device in which the electrolyte is an ionically conductive material according to the invention is another object of the present invention. [0095]
  • It has been noted that the strong dissociation of the ionic species of the compounds of the invention result in a stabilization of the carbocations, in particular those in which there is a conjugation with oxygen or nitrogen and, surprisingly in a strong activity of the proponic form of the compounds of the invention on certain monomers. It is also an object of the invention to provide for the utilization of the ionic compounds as photoinitiators which constitute sources of Bronsted acids, catalysts for the polymerization or cross-linking of monomers or prepolymers capable of cationic reaction, or as a catalysts for the modification of polymers. [0096]
  • The process of polymerization or cross-linking of monomers or prepolymers capable of cationic reaction is characterized in that there is used a compound of the invention as photoinitiator constituting a source of acid which catalyzes the polymerization reaction. The compounds according to the invention in which the cation is a group having a bond —N═N[0097] +, —N═N—, a sulfonium group, an iodonium group, or an optionally substituted arene-ferrocenium cation, possibly incorporated in a polymeric skeleton, are particularly preferred.
  • The choice of substituent R[0098] F on the one hand, and of substituents RD or Z on the other hand, is made in a manner to increase the solubility of said compound in the solvents used for the reaction of the monomers or prepolymers, and as a function of the desired properties for the final polymer. For example, the choice of a non-substituted alkyl radicals gives solubility in low polar media. The choice of radicals comprising a group oxa or a sulfone gives solubility in polar media. The radicals including a sulfoxide group, a sulfone group, and a phosphine oxide group, a phosphonate group, respectively obtained by the addition of oxygen on the atoms of sulfur or phosphorus, may provide improved properties with respect to adhesion, glossiness, resistance to oxidation or UV to the polymer obtained. The monomers and polymers which may be polymerized or cross-linked by means of the photoinitiators of the present invention are those which may be subject to a cationic polymerization.
  • Among the monomers, those which include a cyclic ether function, a cyclic thioether function or a cyclic amino function, vinyl compounds (more particularly vinyl ethers), oxazolines, lactones and lactames may be mentioned. [0099]
  • Among the monomers of the cyclic ether or thioether type, ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, oxetane, epichlorhydrin, tetrahydrofurane, styrene oxide, cyclohexene oxide, vinylcyclohexene oxide, glycidol, butylene oxide, octylene oxide, glycidyl ethers and esters (for example glycidyl methacrylate or acrylate, phenyl glycidyl ether, bisphenol A diglycidylether or its fluorinated derivatives), cyclic acetals having from 4 to 15 carbon atoms (for example dioxolane, 1,3-dioxane, 1,3-dioxepane) and spiro-bicyclo dioxolanes may be mentioned. [0100]
  • Among the vinyl compounds, vinyl ethers constitute a very important family of monomers which are subject to cationic polymerization. By way of example, there may be mentioned ethyl vinyl ether, propyl vinyl ether, isobutyl vinyl ether, octadecyl vinyl ether, ethyleneglycol monovinyl ether, diethyleneglycol divinyl ether, butanediol monovinyl ether, butanediol divinyl ether, hexanediol divinyl ether, ethyleneglycol butyl vinyl ether, triethyleneglycol methyl vinyl ether, cyclohexanedimenthanol monovinyl ether, cyclohexanedimethanol divinyl ether, 2-ethylhexyl vinyl ether, poly-THF-divinyl ether having a weight between 150 and 5000, diethyleneglycol monovinyl ether, trimethylolpropane trivinyl ether, aminopropyl vinyl ether, and 2-diethylaminoethyl vinyl ether. [0101]
  • Other vinyl compounds may include by way of example 1,1-dialkylethylenes (for example isobutene), aromatic vinyl monomers (for example styrene, α-alkylstyrene, such as α-methylstyrene, 4-vinylanisole, acenaphthene), N-vinyl compounds (for example N-vinylpyrolidone or N-vinyl sulfonamides). [0102]
  • Among the prepolymers, there may be mentioned the compounds in which the epoxy groups are carried by an aliphatic chain, an aromatic chain, or a heterocyclic chain, for example glycidyl ethers or bisphenol A which are ethoxylated by 3 to 15 ethylene oxide units, siloxanes having lateral groups of the type epoxycyclohexene-ethyl obtained by hydrosilylation of copolymers of dialkyl, allkylaryl or diaryl siloxane with methyl hydrogenosiloxane in the presence of vinylcyclohexene oxide, condensation products of the type sol-gel obtained from triethoxy or trimethoxy silapropylcyclohexene oxide, urethanes incorporating reaction products of monovinylether butanediol and an alcohol of a function higher than or equal to 2 with an aliphatic or aromatic di or tri isocyanate. [0103]
  • The process of polymerization according to the invention consists in mixing at least one monomer or prepolymer capable of cationic polymerization and at least one ionic compound of the invention, and subjecting the mixture obtained to actinic or β radiation. Preferably, the reaction mixture is subjected to irradiation after having been shaped as a thin layer having a thickness lower than 5 mm, preferably in the form of a thin film having a thickness lower than or equal to 500 μm. The duration of the reaction depends on the thickness of the sample and the power of the source at the active wavelength λ. It is defined by the speed in front of the source, which is comprised between 300 m/min and 1 cm/min. Layers of final material having a thickness higher than 5 mm may be obtained by repeating many times the operation consisting of spreading a layer and treating it byu irradiation. [0104]
  • Generally, the quantity of photoinitiator used is between 0.01 and 15% by weight with respect to the weight of the monomer or prepolymer, preferably between 0.1 and 5% by weight. [0105]
  • An ionic compound of the present invention may be used as photoinitiator in the absence of solvent, for example when it is intended to polymerize liquid monomers in which the ionic compound used as photoinitiator is soluble or easily dispersible. This type of use is particularly interesting, since it permits to get rid of problems associated with solvents (toxicity, flammability). [0106]
  • An ionic compound of the present invention may also be used as photoinitiator in the form of a homogenous solution in a solvent which is insert during polymerization, which solution is ready to use and easily dispersible, in particular in the case where the mixture to be polymerized or cross-linked has a high viscosity. [0107]
  • As an example of inert solvent, there may be mentioned volatile solvents, such as acetone, methyl-ethyl ketone and acetonitrile. These solvents will merely be used for diluting the products to be polymerized or cross-linked (to make them less viscous, especially when dealing with a prepolymer). They will be eliminated by drying after polymerization or cross-linking. Non-volatile solvents may also be mentioned. A non-volatile solvent is also used for diluting the products that are intended to be polymerized or cross-linked, and to dissolve the salt A[0108] +X− of the invention used as photoinitiator, however, it will remain in the material formed and will thus act as a plasticizing agent. By way of example, propylene carbonate, γ-butyrolactone, ether-esters of mono-, di-, tri-ethylene or propylene glycols, ether alcohol of mono-, di-, tri-ethylene or propylene glycols, plasticizing agents such as phthalic acid esters or citric acid esters may be mentioned.
  • According to another embodiment of the invention, there is used as solvent or diluent a compound which is reactive towards polymerization, which has a low molecular weight and low viscosity and which will act simultaneously as a polymerizable monomer and as solvent or diluent for more viscous monomers or prepolymers used jointly. After the reaction, these monomers which have been used as solvents will be part of the macromolecular network finally obtained, their integration being greater when dealing with bi-functional monomers. The material obtained after irradiation is now free of products having a low molecular weight and an appreciable vapour tension, or susceptible to contaminate objects with which the polymer is in contact. By way of example, a reactive solvent may be selected from mono- and di-vinyl ethers of mono-, di-, tri-, tetra-ethylene and propylene glycols, N-methylpyrolidone, 2-propenylether of propylene carbonate which is commercially available for example under the designation PEPC from ISP, New Jersey, United States. [0109]
  • To irradiate the reaction mixture, the irradiation may be selected from ultraviolet radiation, visible radiation, X-rays, γ rays and β radiation. When ultraviolet light is used as an actinic radiation, it may be advantageous to add to the photoinitiators of the invention photosensitizers intended to permit an efficient photolysis with wavelengths less energetic than those corresponding to a maximum of absorption of the photoinitiator, such as those emitted by industrial devices (λ≈300 nm with mercury vapour lamps in particular). Such additives are known, and by way of non-limiting example, there may be mentioned anthracene, diphenyl-9,10-anthracene, perylene, phenothiazine, tetracene, xanthone, thioxanthone, acetophenone, benzophenone, 1,3,5-triaryl-2-pyrazolines and derivatives thereof, in particular derivatives which are substituted on the aromatic nuclei by alkyl, oxa- or aza-alkyl radicals enabling among others to change the absorption wavelength. Isopropylthioxantone is a preferred example of photosensitizer when an iodonium salt according to the invention is used as a photoinitiator. [0110]
  • Among the various types of radiation mentioned, ultraviolet radiation is particularly preferred. On the one hand, it is easier to use than the other radiations mentioned above. On the other hand, photoinitiators are in general directly sensitive to UV rays and photosensitizers especially since the difference of energy (δλ) is lower. [0111]
  • The ionic compounds of the invention may also be used in association with initiators of radical types which are produced thermally or by the action of actinic radiation. It is thus possible to polymerize or cross-link mixtures of monomers or prepolymers containing functions in which the modes of polymerization are different, for example monomers or prepolymers which polymerize by free radical reaction and monomers or prepolymers which polymerize by cationic polymerization. This possibility is particularly advantageous for providing interpenetrated networks having different physical properties from those which would be obtained by a mere mixture of polymers originating from corresponding monomers. The vinyl ethers are not or are very little active by radical initiation. It is therefore possible, in a reaction mixture containing a photoinitiator according to the invention, a free radical initiator, at least one monomer of vinyl ether type and at least one monomer comprising non-activated double bonds such as those of the allyl groups, to carry out a separate polymerization of each type of monomer. On the other hand, it is known that monomers which are deficient in electrons, such as esters or amides of fumaric acid, maleic acid, acrylic or methacrylic acid, itaconic acid, acrylonitrile, methacrylonitrile, maleimides and derivatives thereof, are formed in the presence of electron enriched vinyl ethers, charge transfer complexes which give alternating polymers 1:1 by free radical initiation. An initial excess of vinyl monomers with respect to this stoichiometry enables preservation of polyerizable functions by pure cationic initiation. Triggering of the activity of a mixture of free radical initiator and cationic initiator according to the invention may be carried out simultaneously for the two reactants in the case for example of isolation with actinic radiation of a wavelength in which the photoinitiators of the invention and the free radical initiators selected are active, for example λ=250 nm. By way of example of initiators, the following commercial products may be mentioned: Irgacure 184®, Irgacure 651®, Irgacure 261®, Quantacure DMB®, Quantacure ITX®. [0112]
  • It may also be advantageous to use the two types of polymerization in a sequential manner to form first prepolymers which are easy to produce and in which hardening, adhesiveness, solubility as well as cross-linking degree may be modified by initiating the activity of the cationic initiator. For example, a mixture of a thermo-dissociable free radical initiator and a cationic photoinitiator according to the invention enables to provide sequential polymerization and cross-linkings, first under the action of heat, then under the action of actinic radiation. In a similar manner, if a free radical initiator and a cationic photoinitiator according to the invention are selected, the first being photosensitive to longer wavelengths than the ones which initiate the photoinitiator according to the invention, there is obtained a cross-linking in two controllable steps. Free radical initiators may for example be Irgacure 651®, enabling initiation free radical polymerizations at wavelengths of 365 nm. [0113]
  • It is also an object of the invention to use ionic compounds of the invention for reactions of chemical amplification of photoresists for microlithography. During such a use, a film of a material comprising a polymer and an ionic compound of the invention is subject to irradiation. The irradiation causes the formation of the acid by replacement of the cation M with a proton, which catalyzes the decomposition or transformation of the polymer. After decomposition or transformation of the polymer on the parts of the film which have been irradiated, the formed monomers or the polymer which has been converted are eliminated and what remains is an image of the non-exposed parts. For this particular application, it is advantageous to use a compound of the invention which is in the form of a polymer consisting essentially of styrenyl recurring units having an ionic substituent R[0114] F—SOx—N−—. These compounds enable to produce, after photolysis, products which are non-volatile, and therefore non-odorous when dealing with sulfides. Among the polymers which may thus be modified in the presence of a compound of the invention, there may be mentioned for example polymers containing ester groups or terdoalkyl arylether groups, for example poly(phthaldehydes), polymers of bisphenol A and a diacid, polytertiobutoxycarbonyl oxy-styrene, polytertiobutoxy-α-methyl styrene, polyditertiobutylfumarate-co-allyltrimethylsilane and polyacrylates of a tertiary alcohol, in particular tertiobutyl polyacrylate. Other polymers are described in J. V. Crivello et al, Chemistry of Materials 8, 376-381, (1996).
  • The ionic compounds of the present invention, which have a high thermal stability, have numerous advantages with respect to the known salts of the prior art. They have initiation and propagation speeds which are comparable or higher than those obtained by means of coordination anions of the type PF[0115] 6—, AsF6— and especially SbF6—. In addition, the coefficient of diffusion of the anion RF—SOx—N−— is higher than the one of hexafluorometallate anions or tetrafluoroborate anions or phenylborate anions. These properties are explained by the delocalization of the negative charge and the flexibility of the anion around the bond S—N.
  • In the compounds of the present invention, the pairs of ions have a very high dissociation, which enables the expression of the intrinsic catalyst properties of the cation M[0116] m+, in which the active orbits are easily exposed to the substrates of the reaction, especially in various media. Most of the important reactions of organic chemistry may thus be carried out under easy conditions, with excellent yields, and facilitate the separation of the catalyst from the reaction mixture. The appearance of asymmetric induction by the use of an ionic compound according to the invention which carries a chiral group is particularly important because of its generality and its ease of application. It should be noted that the chiral perfluorinated molecules [RFSO2—N—SO2RF]−, 1/mMm+ are unknown and would only present a negligible optical activity because of the low polarizable character of the perfluorinated groups. Consequently, it is another object of the present invention to use compounds of the invention as catalysts in Friedel and Craft reactions, Diels and Alder reactions, aldolization reactions, additions of Michael, allylation reactions, reactions of pinacolic coupling, reactions of glycosilation, reactions of openings of oxetane cycles, reactions of methathesis of alcenes, polymerization of the Ziegler-Natta type, polymerizations of the type methathesis by opening of the cycle and polymerizations of the type methathesis of acyclic dienes. The preferred ionic compounds of the invention for use as catalyst in the reactions mentioned above are those in which the cation is selected from lithium, magnesium, copper, zinc, tin, trivalent metals, including rare earths, platinoids, their organometallic couples, in particular metallocenes.
  • The compounds of the invention may also be used as a solvent for carrying out chemical, photochemical, electrochemical, photoelectrochemical reactions. For this particular use, ionic compounds in which the cation is an imidazolium, a triazolium, a pydridinium or a 4-dimethylamino-pyridinium are preferred, said cation optionally carrying a substituent on the carbon atoms of the cycle. The compounds being used in liquid form, those which have a melting point lower than 150° C., more particularly lower than 100° C. are particularly preferred. [0117]
  • The inventors have also found that the anionic charge carried by the group R[0118] F—SOx—N−Z exerts a stabilizing effect on electronic conductors of the conjugated polymer type, and that the use of a compound in which the substituent Z comprises a long alkyl chain would cause these polymers to be soluble in the usual organic solvents, even in doped state. Grafting of these charges on the polymer itself gives polymers in which the global charge is cationic, which are soluble in organic solvents and provide, in addition to their stability, properties of anti-corrosiveness towards metals, such as aluminum and ferrous metals. It is also an object of the present invention to provide electronically-conductive materials comprising an ionic compound of the present invention in which the cationic part is a polycation consisting of a “p” doped conjugated polymer. The preferred ionic compounds for this application are those in which the substituent Z contains at least one alkyl chain having from 6 to 20 carbon atoms. By way of example, the compounds in which Z is RDY—, RD being an alkyl radical, may be mentioned. There may also be mentioned compounds in which RF is RACF2—, RACF2CF2—, RACF2CF(CF3)— or CF3C(RA)F— in which RA— represents an alkyl radical. Additionally, compounds in which Z represents an aromatic nucleus carrying an alkyl radical may also be mentioned.
  • Coloring materials of cationic type (cyanines) are used more and more frequently as sensitizers of photographic films, for the optical storing of information (optical disks which are accessible in writing), for lasers. The tendency of these conjugated molecules to be stacked over one another when they are in solid phases limits their use, because of the variations of the optical properties with respect to the isolated molecule. The use of ionic compounds of the invention for the manufacture of cationic coloring materials in which the counter ions, eventually fixed to this same molecule, correspond to the functions of the invention, enables to reduce the phenomenons of aggregation, including in solid polymer matrices, and to stabilize these coloring materials. It is another object of the invention to provide a composition of colouring material, characterized in that it contains an ionic compound according to the invention. The particularly preferred ionic compounds of this application are those in which the negative charge(s) of the ionic group R[0119] F—SOx—N−—Z are either fixed to the molecule of the colouring material or they constitute the counter-ion of the positive charges of the colouring material. By way of example of such compounds, the following compounds may be mentioned:

After a few hours, the solution was concentrated. Then, a pad of activated charcoal, previously de-gassed, having a specific surface of 1,500 m[0209] 2/g (commercially available from Actitex), was impregnated with the viscous liquid obtained. After drying, this operation was repeated to improve the impregnation. After having maintained the impregnated pad during 1 week in a dryer at 50° C., two buttons having a diameter of 2 cm were cut out by stamping. A sheet of cigarette paper (commercially available from Bolloré Technologies) was then impregnated with a viscous liquid identical to the one used to impregnate the carbon pad. This sheet was placed between the two buttons of impregnated carbon pad which were used as carbon electrodes. After 1 week in a dryer at 50° C., and 2 days under vacuum at 60° C., there is obtained a “all-solid” electrochemical supercapacitance. This supercapacitance has given the following performances at 40° C.: a density of energy of 15 Wh/l (or a capacity of 96 F/g of carbon for an electrode), a maximum power of 700 W/kg and good results in cycling (more than 10,000 cycles of charge/discharge between 0 and 2V). Such a supercapacitance is particularly interesting in the field of electronics because of the absence of volatile liquids.

  • A crushing under a glove box of a molar mixture of 7 imidazoles for 2 imidazolium salts has enabled to give a compound having a melting temperature lower than ambient. This molten salt has an elevated protonic conductivity which is higher than 10[0252] −3 S.cm−1 at 60° C. It is possible to obtain a polymer electrolyte, which is an anhydrous protonic conductor by adding poly (ethylene oxide), preferably of high molecular weight or which can later be cross-linked, to the molten salt without detrimentally affecting the conductivity. These polymer electrolytes are particularly interesting for the preparation of systems for the modulation of light such as electrochrome glass panes including electrochrome systems containing coloring materials.
  • There is obtained a membrane which is optically transparent in visible light and having a good mechanical behaviour by utilizing a polymer electrolyte made of 80% by weight of molten salt and 20% by weight of poly (ethylene oxide) of molecular weight M[0253] w=5.106. There was then produced an electrochrome system under glove box by utilizing this electrolyte enclosed between a first electrode consisting of the deposit on a glass plate of a layer of hydrogenated iridium oxide HxIrO2 and a conductive sub-layer of tin oxide and a second electrode consisting of a layer of tungsten trioxide HxIrO2 and a conductive sub-layer of tin oxide. This electrochrome led to a variation of the optical absorption from 80% (discolored state) to 30% (colored state) and good performances in cycling (more than 20,000 cycles of coloring/discoloring).
  • An electrochrome was also produced by dissolving two complimentary coloring materials in such a molten salt: in a glove box, 1.62 g (5 mmoles) of the imidazolium salt of trifluoromethanesulfonyl(dimethylaminosulfonyl)imide and 1.02 g of imidazole (15 mmoles) were crushed together. Then, to the molten salt, there was added 16.5 mg (50 μmoles) of green leucomalachite (colorless reduced state) and 29.5 mg (50 μmoles) of the salt of 3-(4,5-dimethyl-thiazolyl-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium (MTT) and trifluoromethanesulfonyl(dimethyl-aminosulfonyl)imide (colorless oxidized state, obtained by ionic exchange in water starting from the bromide.). Then, there was added 5% by weight of poly (ethylene oxide) of molecular weight M[0254] w=3.105. The salt obtained was placed between 2 glass plates covered with a conductive layer of tin oxide (SnO2). After pressing under vacuum to homogenize the deposit and sealing it to make it impervious, there is obtained a coloring material base electrochrome system. After having sealed the product obtained to make it impervious, a potential of 1,300 mV was applied on the outside by means of a potentiostat. The system then became colored, and the oxidized form of green malachite and the reduced form of MTT each has an intense absorption band in the visible range. By applying a potential of −500 mV, a relatively rapid discoloring of the system (lower than 60 s) was noted. Such an electrochrome system is easy to prepare, even for systems of large sizes (higher than m2) which utilize glass or a suitably treated polymer as conductive transparent electrode. Moreover, the energy which is necessary to maintain coloration is relatively low, lower than 1 W/m2.

After 1 hour, the reaction mixture was filtered to remove the insoluble potassium tetrafluoroborate, and there is thus obtained a solution 1 M of trifluoromethanesulfonyl-(dimethylaminosulfonyl)imide (CH3)2NSO2N(NO)SO2CF3 in nitromethane.
  • By a similar process, a 1 M solution in nitromethane of the nitrosonium salt of trifluoromethanesulfonyl(dibutyl-aminosulfonyl)imide (C[0258] 4H9)2NSO2N(NO)SO2CF3, was prepared from the potassium salt of trifluoromethanesulfonyl-(dibutylaminosulfonyl)imide (obtained in Example 28) and another 1 M solution in nitromethane of the nitrosonium salt of trifluoromethane-sulfonyl(N,N-di-2-ethylhexylaminosulfonyl)imide (C4H9CH(C2H5)CH2)2N(NO)SO2CF3, was prepared from the potassium salt of trifuoromethanesulfonyl-(N,N-di-2-ethylhexylaminosulfonyl)imide (obtained in Example 28).

After drying, these deposits were doped with one of the salts in solution in nitromethane. After doping, the three poly(3-hexylthiophene) films had an electronic conductivity higher than 1 S.cm[0260] −1 independently of the doping salt. Stability in humid medium of the conductivity was improved with an increase of the length of the alkyl segments. These deposits are useful for preparing masks in the semi-conductor industry.
