The role of bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (Tf2N−) anions in the ionic liquid–water distribution systems of Eu(III) chelates with 2-thenoyltrifluoroacetone (Htta) was investigated by liquid–liquid distribution and time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy (TRLFS). The extraction constants of neutral Eu(tta)3 and anionic Eu(tta)4− chelates in 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide ([Cnmim][Tf2N]) were determined by analyzing the distribution equilibrium. The effect of the ionic liquids on the distribution constant of the neutral Eu(tta)3 chelate was evaluated by the regular solution theory. The distribution constant of Eu(tta)3 in [Cnmim][Tf2N] was increased dramatically by the solvation effects of Eu(tta)3 in [Cnmim][Tf2N]. TRLFS for [Eu(tta)3(H2O)3] synthesized revealed that the Eu(tta)3 chelate was almost completely dehydrated in a series of [Cnmim][Tf2N] (n = 2–10). The Eu(tta)3 chelate exists as di- or tri-hydrates in 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium perchlorate ([C2mim][ClO4]) containing 20 mol dm−3 water, whereas mono-hydrated chelate was formed in [C2mim][Tf2N, ClO4] in the presence of 0.50 mol dm−3 Tf2N− and 20 mol dm−3 water. These results show that the coordinated water molecules of [Eu(tta)3(H2O)3] were replaced by the Tf2N− anions. In fact, an anionic adduct, [Eu(tta)3(Tf2N)]−, was observed by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry in the presence of [C4mim][Tf2N].
