Lithium pentafluoroethyltrifluoroborate, (LiFAB), was prepared by a facile metathesis reaction between high-purity and in dimethyl carbonate with almost quantitative yield. It was characterized by and elemental analysis. In nonaqueous solvents, LiFAB showed higher electrolytic conductivities than due to the weaker coordinating ability of Compared with it showed a lower electrolytic conductivity in room-temperature region, and a higher conductivity in low-temperature region The performances of LiFAB were evaluated in comparison with and by using Li/graphite and Li/nickel-based oxide half-cells and Li-ion cells. The results showed that LiFAB could afford comparable performances to and much better performances than © 2005 The Electrochemical Society. All rights reserved.
