“…In comparison, little information was available for symmetric polyvalent (Molinou and Tsierkezos, 2001;Molinou, 2000, 2006) and unsymmetric electrolytes (K 2 SO 4 , Na 2 SO 4 , Cd(NO 3 ) 2 , CdCl 2 , CaCl 2 , Ca(NO 3 ) 2 , CoCl 2 , and Zn(NO 3 ) 2 ) in nonaqueous (e.g., Gibson et al, 2006;Pura, 2007) or mixed solvents (Fujii et al, 2006;Qiao et al, 2008). In mixed nonaqueous solvents, the study of complexation were almost limited to symmetric univalent electrolytes in binary mixtures containing PC and selected dipolar aprotic solvents such as THF (Al-Najar et al, 1992), EC (Srivastava and Samant, 1994), DMSO (Srivastava and Shankar, 1998), AN (Barthel et al, 1999), and so forth. Qiao et al (2008) determined the ion association of LiBF 4 in MEC + DMC and MEC + AN, and Fujii et al (2006) measured the formation constants of cobalt chloride ion pairs (CoCl + , CoCl − 3 , CoCl 2− 4 , CoCl (2−n)+ n , n = 1-4) in DMF + NMF.…”
