RESUMO

Room Temperature Ionic Liquids (RTIL) has had increasingly application in different areas of the Chemistry, due to its advantageous physical-chemical properties in relation to other conventional solvents. BMI cation derived RTILs got relevance due its singular physical-chemical properties, like a good electric conductivity and a wide electrochemical window. In contrast with others spectroscopic techniques, SERS is a extremely powerful technique for studies of electrode/solution interface in electrochemical systems, because of its high sensitivity and the possibility of working with solid-liquid interfaces and in aqueous media. In this work SER spectra were obtained in situ for adsorbed BMIPF6 on Ag electrode for several applied potentials, as well the ones of adsorbed pyridine on the Ag/BMIPF interface. We also show the SER spectra of BMICl 6 aqueous solution at several pHs, being proposed its complete vibrational assignment. The results about the adsorption of pyridine show Ag/BMIPF 6 interface can be successfully used for SERS studies of electrochemical systems. This results have also characterized the electrochemical behavior of pyridine at different applied potentials. It was observed in the SER spectra of BMIPF6 adsorbed on Ag electrode the electrochemical generation of a BMI carbene and changes of the adsorption geometry at characteristic potentials. The SERS study of BMICl in aqueous media has shown that its behavior depends on the pH of media, with the electrochemical generation of one neutral radical derived in alkaline media. The results show that the SERS effect is a powerful technique for the study of electrochemical systems in RTIL, allowing the attainment of a very kind of information about electrochemical processes occurring at electrode surface, like changes of adsorption geometry and ionic pairs formation, besides structural information about the adsorbed molecules.
