Abstract
HYPOTHESIS Adding solvents to ionic liquids (ILs) can lead to the suppression of the overscreening effect near an electrode interface. Also, this suppression can be observed in neat ILs by elongating the length of the nonpolar chains on their ions. Most neat ILs, unlike the ideal model, do not exhibit a crowding effect in experiments. Through molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, researchers can model and analyze these systems in order to understand them. SIMULATIONS In this study, the dynamic change near the electrode interface of ILs-based electrolytes was investigated using MD simulations. The phenomena observed in MD simulations are generally understandable because factors can attenuate charge densities calculated from these simulations. FINDINGS The study findings reveal that both the solvents or nonpolar chains contributed to the formation of nonpolar domains. Also, the microscopic mechanisms and influences of these nonpolar domains were clearly identified. The results are important for real life applications. Some ions form a "point to surface" layer near the electrode of neat ILs. When ILs contain long nonpolar chains, they can suppress the crowding effect through self-assembly behavior. However, when they do not have any chains or short nonpolar chains, it can be difficult to stop the overscreening effect. This means it can become challenging to begin the next stage of the crowding effect.

Abstract
The utilization of carbon dioxide as a raw material represents nowadays an appealing strategy in the renewable energy, organic synthesis, and green chemistry fields. Besides reduction strategies, carbon dioxide can be exploited as a single-carbon-atom building block through its fixation into organic scaffolds with the formation of new C-C bonds (carboxylation processes). In this case, activation of the organic substrate is commonly required, upon formation of a carbanion C-, being sufficiently reactive toward the addition of CO2. However, the prediction of the reactivity of C- with CO2 is often problematic with the process being possibly associated with unfavorable thermodynamics. In this contribution, we present a thermodynamic analysis combined with density functional theory calculations on 50 organic molecules enabling the achievement of a linear correlation of the standard free energy (ΔG0) of the carboxylation reaction with the basicity of the carbanion C-, expressed as the pKa of the CH/C- couple. The analysis identifies a threshold pKa of ca 36 (in CH3CN) for the CH/C- couple, above which the ΔG0 of the carboxylation reaction is negative and indicative of a favorable process. We then apply the model to a real case involving electrochemical carboxylation of flavone and chalcone as model compounds of α,β-unsaturated ketones. Carboxylation occurs in the β-position from the doubly reduced dianion intermediates of flavone and chalcone (calculated ΔG0 of carboxylation in β = -12.8 and -20.0 Kcalmol-1 for flavone and chalcone, respectively, associated with pKa values for the conjugate acids of 50.6 and 51.8, respectively). Conversely, the one-electron reduced radical anions are not reactive toward carboxylation (ΔG0 > +20 Kcalmol-1 for both substrates, in either α or β position, consistent with pKa of the conjugate acids < 18.5). For all the possible intermediates, the plot of calculated ΔG0 of carboxylation vs. pKa is consistent with the linear correlation model developed. The application of the ΔG0 vs. pKa correlation is finally discussed for alternative reaction mechanisms and for carboxylation of other C=C and C=O double bonds. These results offer a new mechanistic tool for the interpretation of the reactivity of CO2 with organic intermediates.

Abstract
The imidazolium-based ionic liquids (ILs) are solvents known for selectively solubilizing CO2 from a gas CH4/CO2 mixture, hence we have produced new hybrid adsorbents by immobilizing two ILs on xerogel silica to obtain a solid–gas system that benefits the ILs’ properties and can be industrially applied in CO2 capture. In this work, the ILs (MeO)3Sipmim.Cl and (MeO)3Sipmim.Tf2N were used at different loadings via the sol–gel process employing a based 1-methyl-3-(3-trimethoxysylilpropyl) imidazolium IL associated to the anion Cl− or Tf2N− as a reactant in the synthesis of silica xerogel. The CO2 adsorption measurements were conducted through pressure and temperature gravimetric analysis (PTGA) using a microbalance. SEM microscopies images have shown that there is an IL limit concentration that can be immobilized (ca. 20%) and that the xerogel particles have a spherical shape with an average size of 20 µm. The adsorbent with 20% IL (MeO)3Sipmim.Cl, SILCLX20, shows greater capacity to absorb CO2, reaching a value of 0.35 g CO2 / g adsorbent at 0.1 MPa (298 K). Surprisingly, the result for xerogel with IL (MeO)3Sipmim.Tf2N shows poor performance, with only 0.05 g CO2 / g absorbed, even having a hydrophobic character which would benefit their interaction with CO2. However, this hydrophobicity could interfere negatively in the xerogel synthesis process. The immobilization of ionic liquids in silica xerogel is an advantageous technique that reduces costs in the use of ILs as they can be used in smaller quantities and can be recycled after CO2 desorption.
