The gas-phase valence binding energy spectrum of isolated ion-pairs of the commonly used [1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium][bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide)] room-temperature ionic liquid is obtained by photoionization of a molecular beam of ionic liquid vapor by extreme ultraviolet light. The isolated ion-pair nature of the ionic liquid vapor is corroborated by single photon ionization mass spectroscopy, complemented by computed vaporization energetics of ion-pairs and clusters of ion-pairs. The valence binding energy spectrum of the isolated ion-pairs is discussed in comparison with available liquid-phase data and theoretical density functional theory calculations.
