Abstract

The methanesulfonic acid (MSA)—propylene carbonate (PC) system with component concentrations of 0–100% was studied at 30°C using the Multiple Attenuated Total Reflection (MATR) IR spectroscopy. The formation of a strong 1∶1 molecular complex of MSA with PC was established. In the presence of an excess of the acid, a second MSA molecule adds to this complex to give the molecular complex (2MSA)·PC. When excess propylene carbonate is used, the MSA·PC complex is solvated by a propylene carbonate molecule. No protonation of the base or formation of complexes with a strong symmetrical H bond was observed. Continuous absorption was not detected in IR spectra of the solutions.
