The first example of chloroaluminate ionic liquids (ILs) analogues based on amides of fluorinated carboxylic acids, namely 1-trifluoroacetyl piperidine (TFAP), has been described. The possibility of applying of this electrolytes has been experimentally evaluated in the series TFAP/AlCl3; TFAP/LiCl/AlCl3; TFAP/[EMIm]Cl/AlCl3; [EMIm]Cl/AlCl3 for use in an aluminum ion battery. The specific conductivities measured by the method of current interruption and impedance spectroscopy at 30 degrees C were 0.49, 0.28, 1.37, 20.23 mS cm(-1), respectively. The exchange current densities at the two-phase interface aluminium/electrolyte investigated using the impedance spectroscopy method were 0.18, 0.03, 0.42, 1100 mu A cm(-2), respectively. TFAP-based electrolytes did not crystallize when cooled down to -60 degrees C, according to DSC data. The presence of the molecular [AlCl3 (TFAP)], and the ionic AlCl4- [AlCl2(TFAP)(4)](+), and [Al(T-FAP)(6)](3-) species is proposed based on the Al-27 NMR spectra of the studied new ILs analogues.
