A preliminary Raman investigation of the ionic liquid N-methyl-N-propylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (PYR13TFSI) and its 2/1 complex with the lithium salt LiN(SO2CF3)(2) is reported. The study was performed over a temperature range extending from -100 to +60 degreesC, i.e., with PYR13TFSI in the crystalline and melt states. For comparison purposes, the study was extended to PYR13I, which is the precursor used in the synthesis of PYR13TFSI.
