Title: Solvent for non-aqueous battery

Patent ·
OSTI ID:1650779

A solvent useful for lithium batteries comprises a compound of Formula (I): (R1)(R2)(R3)Si—R4—O—C(O)—[(O—R5)n—(O—C(O)]m—O—R6—X1. Each of R1 and R2 independently is alkyl; R3 is alkyl, —X2—Si(R7)(R8)(R9), or —CH2—O—C(O)—O—R10; X1 is H or —Si(R11)(R12)(R13); each of R4 and R6 independently is alkylene; each R5 independently is C2 to C6 alkylene; each of R7, R8, R9, and R10 independently is alkyl; X2 is O or alkylene; each of R11 and R12 independently is alkyl; R13 is alkyl or —X3—Si(R14)(R15)(R16); each of R14, R15, and R16 independently is alkyl; X3 is O or alkylene; m is 0 or 1, and n is 1-3; and when m is 0 and R3 is alkyl, X1 is —Si(R11)(R12)(R13). Also described is a method for manufacturing a compound of Formula (II): (R17)(R18)(R19)Si—CH2—O—C(O)—O—R20 where each R17, R18, R19, and R20 is alkyl.
