Abstract
Investigating vibrational behavior in solution is crucial for understanding molecular dynamics within a solvent environment. Notably, the analysis of Raman spectra for molecules in solution is important owing to its ability to unveil intricate solute-solvent interactions. Previous studies have effectively employed frequency calculations utilizing the reference interaction site model self-consistent field method in conjunction with constrained spatial electron density distribution (RISM-SCF-cSED) to understand molecular vibrations in solution, primarily focusing on fundamental vibrational modes. However, the oversight of overtones and combination tones in these studies prompted us to combine the vibrational self-consistent field (VSCF) and vibrational second-order Mo̷ller-Plesset perturbation (VMP2) methods with RISM-SCF-cSED to address these aspects theoretically. Illustrating the efficacy of this integrated approach, we computed the Raman spectra of sodium formate (NaHCOO) in water, revealing the necessity of accounting for molecular anharmonicity in solution vibrational analysis. Our findings underscore the potency of VSCF and VMP2 in conjunction with RISM-SCF-cSED as a robust theoretical framework for such calculations.

Abstract
A robust solid electrolyte interface (SEI) is crucial to widen the electrochemical stability window of the electrolyte and enable sustainably stable electrode reactions in aqueous Zn ion batteries. Different from the SEI in nonaqueous electrolytes, it is of great importance to form a functional and stable SEI due to parasitic reactions with water in aqueous Zn ion batteries. However, the concrete SEI formation in aqueous electrolytes has been elusive so far. Here, we regulate and unravel the decomposition mechanisms of organic Zn salts at the Zn anode-electrolyte interface in the widely studied zinc triflate-based aqueous electrolytes. By introducing a buffering adsorption layer with an optimal concentration of acetate anions, the uncontrollable decomposition of organic zinc triflate salt is greatly inhibited on Zn anodes, resulting in a stable interface. The average Coulombic efficiency of the Zn anode thus can reach as high as 99.95% and stable cycling for 4200 h. With the cooperation of buffering adsorption layers, the tetraethyl ammonium trifluoromethanesulfonate additive as the decomposition promoter could further regulate the decomposition of triflate anions for the formation of robust SEI layers for Zn anodes in electrolytes with a dilute salt concentration. Zn-polyaniline (PANI) full cells demonstrate stable cycling with controlled N/P ratios in such electrolytes. This work proposes an insightful perspective on rational regulation of the decomposition pathway of electrolyte components by forming a stable electrode-electrolyte interface for improved electrochemical performance of aqueous Zn ion batteries.

Abstract
AbstractNaHCOO(aq) and NaDCOO(aq) solutions were measured using Raman spectroscopy from dilute to concentrated solutions at 23 °C in water and heavy water from 50 to 4300 cm−1. A concentrated NaHCOO solution in heavy water was also measured. The Raman band parameters of HCOO−(aq) and DCOO−(aq) such as peak position, full width at half maximum (fwhm), integrated intensities, and depolarization values were determined. From the Raman spectroscopic data, it was concluded that the HCOO−(aq) and DCOO−(aq) symmetry is lower than C2v and probably as low as C1. In contrast to the solution state, $$\tt \normalsize \tt \normalsize {\text{HCO}}_{2}^{ - }$$

) possess C2v symmetry in the gas phase and the DFT frequencies are given. DFT frequencies on a cluster of HCOO−/DCOO− with five implicit water molecules in the first sphere and placed in a polarizable continuum deviate not more than 1–2% from the measured ones. In the Raman spectrum in NaHCOO(aq), a band doublet at 2730 cm−1 and 2820 cm−1 occurs instead of a single band. The band doublet is due to Fermi resonance and results from the interaction of the overtone of the bending C–H mode, 2ν6 at 1382 cm−1 and ν1. The undisturbed C–H stretching mode, ν1 amounts to 2785 cm−1. In DCOO−(aq), a Fermi doublet was also observed at 2030.5 and 2116.5 cm−1, and the undisturbed wavenumber position amounts to 2101 cm−1. Furthermore, a solution of HCOO− in D2O showed slightly changed frequencies compared with the ones in water caused by the solvent isotope effect. Ion pairing between Na+ and HCOO− characterizes the Raman spectrum at high solute concentrations which are melt-like enabling direct contact between the ions. A NaHCOO solution with high amounts of LiCl added showed large perturbations of the HCOO− bands especially νsCOO− and δ COO− of HCOO−and revealed a stronger affinity of Li+ toward HCOO−. The ion pairs formed are most likely contact ion pairs between Li+ and HCOO− which have different stoichiometry of Li+: HCOO− such as 1:1 and 2:1.

Abstract
![]()
Ion pairing
in water solutions alters both the water hydrogen-bond network and
ion solvation, modifying the dynamics and properties of electrolyte
water solutions. Here, we report an anomalous intrinsic fluorescence
of KCl aqueous solution at room temperature and show that its intensity
increases with the salt concentration. From the ab initio density
functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT modeling, we propose
that the fluorescence emission could originate from the stiffening
of the hydrogen bond network in the hydration shell of solvated ion-pairs
that suppresses the fast nonradiative decay and allows the slower
radiative channel to become a possible decay pathway. Because computations
suggest that the fluorophores are the local ion-water structures present
in the prenucleation phase, this band could be the signature of the
incoming salt precipitation.

Abstract
The present work uses ATR-FTIR spectroscopy assisted by simulations in explicit solvent and frequency calculations to investigate the supramolecular structure of carboxylate alkali-metal ion pairs in aqueous solutions. ATR-FTIR spectra in the 0.25-4.0 M concentration range displayed cation-specific behaviors, which enabled the measurement of the appearance concentration thresholds of contact ion pairs between 1.9 and 2.6 M depending on the cation. Conformational explorations performed using a non-local optimization method associated to a polarizable force-field (AMOEBA), followed by high quantum chemistry level (RI-B97-D3/dhf-TZVPP) optimizations, mode-dependent scaled harmonic frequency calculations and electron density analyses, were used to identify the main supramolecular structures contributing to the experimental spectra. A thorough analysis enables us to reveal the mechanisms responsible for the spectroscopic sensitivity of the carboxylate group and the respective role played by the cation and the water molecules, highlighting the necessity of combining advanced experimental and theoretical techniques to provide a fair and accurate description of ion pairing.

Abstract
Water-in-salt solutions, i.e. solutions in which the amount of salt by volume or weight is larger than that of the solvent, are attracting increasing attention in electrochemistry due to their distinct features that often include decomposition potentials much higher than those of lower concentration solutions. Despite the high solubility of potassium acetate (KAC) in water at room temperature (up to 25 moles of salt per kg of solvent), the low cost, and the large availability, the use of highly concentrated KAC solutions is still limited to a few examples in energy storage applications and a systematic study of their physical-chemical properties is lacking. To fill this gap, we have investigated the thermal, rheological, electrical, electrochemical, and spectroscopic features of KAC/water solutions in the compositional range between 1 and 25 mol kg-1. We show the presence of a transition between the "salt-in-solvent" and "solvent-in-salt" regimes in the range of 10-15 mol kg-1. Among the explored compositions, the highest concentrations (20 and 25 mol kg-1) exhibit good room temperature conductivity values (55.6 and 31 mS cm-1, respectively) and a large electrochemical potential window (above 2.5 V).

Abstract
We introduce an experimental setup allowing continuous monitoring of bacterial fermentation processes by simultaneous optical density (OD) measurements, long-path FTIR headspace monitoring of CO2, acetaldehyde and ethanol, and liquid Raman spectroscopy of acetate, formate, and phosphate anions, without sampling. We discuss which spectral features are best suited for detection, and how to obtain partial pressures and concentrations by integrations and least squares fitting of spectral features. Noise equivalent detection limits are about 2.6 mM for acetate and 3.6 mM for formate at 5 min integration time, improving to 0.75 mM for acetate and 1.0 mM for formate at 1 h integration. The analytical range extends to at least 1 M with a standard deviation of percentage error of about 8%. The measurement of the anions of the phosphate buffer allows the spectroscopic, in situ determination of the pH of the bacterial suspension via a modified Henderson-Hasselbalch equation in the 6-8 pH range with an accuracy better than 0.1. The 4 m White cell FTIR measurements provide noise equivalent detection limits of 0.21 μbar for acetaldehyde and 0.26 μbar for ethanol in the gas phase, corresponding to 3.2 μM acetaldehyde and 22 μM ethanol in solution, using Henry's law. The analytical dynamic range exceeds 1 mbar ethanol corresponding to 85 mM in solution. As an application example, the mixed acid fermentation of Escherichia coli is studied. The production of CO2, ethanol, acetaldehyde, acids such as formate and acetate, and the changes in pH are discussed in the context of the mixed acid fermentation pathways. Formate decomposition into CO2 and H2 is found to be governed by a zeroth-order kinetic rate law, showing that adding exogenous formate to a bioreactor with E. coli is expected to have no beneficial effect on the rate of formate decomposition and biohydrogen production.

Abstract
Abstract
The structure of aq. sodium acetate solution (CH3COONa, NaOAc) was studied by X-ray scattering and density function theory (DFT). For the first hydrated layer of Na+, coordination number (CN) between Na+ and O(W, I) decreases from 5.02 ± 0.85 at 0.976 mol/L to 3.62 ± 1.21 at 4.453 mol/L. The hydration of carbonyl oxygen (OC) and hydroxyl oxygen (OOC) of CH3COO− were investigated separately and the OC shows a stronger hydration bonds comparing with OOC. With concentrations increasing, the hydration shell structures of CH3COO− are not affected by the presence of large number of ions, each CH3COO− group binds about 6.23 ± 2.01 to 7.35 ± 1.73 water molecules, which indicates a relatively strong interaction between CH3COO− and water molecules. The larger uncertainty of the CN of Na+ and OC(OOC) reflects the relative looseness of Na-OC and Na-OOC ion pairs in aq. NaOAc solutions, even at the highest concentration (4.453 mol/L), suggesting the lack of contact ion pair (CIP) formation. In aq. NaOAc solutions, the so called “structure breaking” property of Na+ and CH3COO− become effective only for the second hydration sphere of bulk water. The DFT calculations of CH3COONa (H2O)n=5–7 clusters suggest that the solvent-shared ion pair (SIP) structures appear at n = 6 and become dominant at n = 7, which is well consistent with the result from X-ray scattering.

Abstract
In a context where structure elucidation of ion pairs in solution remains a contemporary challenge, this work explores an original approach where accurate gas phase spectroscopic data are used to refine high level quantum chemistry calculations of ion pairs in solution, resulting in an unprecedented level of accuracy in vibrational frequency prediction. First, gas phase studies focus on a series of isolated contact ion pairs (M+, Ph-CH2-COO-, with M = Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs) for which conformer-selective IR spectra in the CO2- stretch region are recorded. These experiments reveal the interactions at play in isolated contact ion pairs, and provide vibrational frequencies enabling us to assess the accuracy of the theoretical approach used, i.e., mode-dependent scaled harmonic frequency calculations at the RI-B97-D3/dhf-TZVPP level. This level of calculation is then employed on large water clusters embedding either a free acetate ion or its contact or solvent-shared pairs with a sodium cation in order to simulate the individual vibrational spectra of these species in solution. This study shows that the stretching modes of carboxylate are sensitive to both solvent-shared and contact ion pair formation. FTIR spectra of solutions of increasing concentrations indeed reveal several spectral changes consistent with the presence of specific types of solvent-shared and contact ion pairs. By providing relevant guidelines for the interpretation of solution phase IR spectra, this work illustrates the potential of the approach for the elucidation of supramolecular structures in electrolyte solutions.

Abstract
Vibrational spectroscopy has continued use as a powerful tool to characterize ionic liquids since the literature on room temperature molten salts experienced the rapid increase in number of publications in the 1990's. In the past years, infrared (IR) and Raman spectroscopies have provided insights on ionic interactions and the resulting liquid structure in ionic liquids. A large body of information is now available concerning vibrational spectra of ionic liquids made of many different combinations of anions and cations, but reviews on this literature are scarce. This review is an attempt at filling this gap. Some basic care needed while recording IR or Raman spectra of ionic liquids is explained. We have reviewed the conceptual basis of theoretical frameworks which have been used to interpret vibrational spectra of ionic liquids, helping the reader to distinguish the scope of application of different methods of calculation. Vibrational frequencies observed in IR and Raman spectra of ionic liquids based on different anions and cations are discussed and eventual disagreements between different sources are critically reviewed. The aim is that the reader can use this information while assigning vibrational spectra of an ionic liquid containing another particular combination of anions and cations. Different applications of IR and Raman spectroscopies are given for both pure ionic liquids and solutions. Further issues addressed in this review are the intermolecular vibrations that are more directly probed by the low-frequency range of IR and Raman spectra and the applications of vibrational spectroscopy in studying phase transitions of ionic liquids.

Abstract
The coexistence of several types of ion pairs in solution together with their elusive nature hampers their experimental characterization, which relies in practice on theoretical models resorting to numerous approximations. In this context, a series of isolated contact ion pairs between a lithium cation and phenyl-tagged carboxylate anions of various lengths (Ph-(CH2)n-COO(-), n = 1-3) has been investigated in a conformer-selective manner by IR and UV laser spectroscopy, in conjunction with quantum chemistry calculations. The typical gas-phase IR signature of the bidentate structure formed between the carboxylate moiety and Li(+) has thus been obtained in the CO2(-) stretch region. In addition to the cation-anion interaction, a cation-π interaction occurs simultaneously in the largest system investigated (n = 3). The resulting distorted ion pair structure has been evidenced from both the IR signature of the CO2(-) stretches and the unique vibrationally resolved UV spectroscopy of a phenyl ring interacting with a cation. Such specific spectroscopic signatures of contact ion pairs provide experimental benchmarks, alternative to theoretical predictions, that can assist the assignment of vibrational spectra in solution.
