The extraction behavior of Rh(III) with Hexahexyl-nitrilotriacetamide, NTAamide(C6) was investigated in three different diluents (acetophenone, AP, 1,2-dichloroethane, DCE, and 1-octanol, OC). The electrochemical behavior of the extracted Rh(III) complex in each diluent was investigated from linear sweep voltammetry. It was revealed that Rh(III) was reduced to Rh(0) metal by a three electron transfer in NTAamide(C6)/AP, DCE and OC system. The electrodeposits can be recovered from continuous solvent extraction and direct electrodeposition. The electrodeposits were identified by XPS and XRD analyses as mainly Rh metal.

The ionic liquid/Si electrode interface was investigated using neutron reflectivity. We precisely elucidated the structure of the electrical double layer formed at 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)amide ([BMIM]TFSA)/Si(100) electrode interface with the orientation of the [BMIM]TFSA molecule using a partially deuterated [BMIM]TFSA. The results revealed that [BMIM]TFSA molecules form a layered structure. Cation and anion molecules are alternatingly stacked and molecules in the first three layers are horizontally oriented to the electrode surface at E = -1.2 V, i.e., on the negatively charged electrode surface. It was also revealed that the imidazole ring in [BMIM] cation is parallel to the electrode surface.
