## Abstract

It is an object of the present invention to provide an electrochemical device having an electrolytic solution having high current density and high oxidation resistance, as well as high safety, where dissolution and deposition of magnesium progress repeatedly and stably.
The present invention relates to the electrolytic solution for an electrochemical device comprising (1) the supporting electrolyte composed of a magnesium salt and (2) at least one or more kinds of the compound represented by the following general formula [2], as well as the electrochemical device comprising said electrolytic solution, a positive electrode, a negative electrode and a separator.

## Background
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to an electrolytic solution containing a magnesium ion and an electrochemical device including said electrolytic solution.
BACKGROUND ART
Magnesium to be used as a raw material of a magnesium ion battery is an element present abundantly on the earth, and is a material having higher superiority as compared with lithium which is unstable in price and supply amount or the like. In addition, since the magnesium ion battery is cheap and safe, as well as has high energy density, it has been drawn attention as a post-lithium ion battery.
As a negative electrode of the magnesium ion battery, usually metal magnesium is used. However, since metal magnesium has high reducibility, in the case where said metal is used as a negative electrode, it reacts with an electrolytic solution to form a passive state film having low ion conductivity, at the electrode surface thereof. There has been well known that formation of this passive state film inhibits reversible dissolution and deposition of magnesium, which has been a problem on using metal magnesium as a negative electrode.
On the other hand, an electrolytic solution not forming the passive state film has also been known. For example, in PATENT LITERATURE 1 and NON PATENT LITERATURE 1, there has been reported that by using an electrolytic solution, where an electrolyte represented by the general formula Mg(ZR11R2mXn)2 (wherein z represents a boron or an aluminum; R1 and R2 represent a hydrocarbon group; X represents a bromine or a chlorine; and l+m+n is 4) is dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (THF), reversible dissolution and deposition of magnesium is possible.
Additionally, various reports have been made aiming at enhancing performance of the magnesium ion battery. For example, in PATENT LITERATURE 2, there has been reported that by using an electrolytic solution, where an aromatic Grignard's reagent represented by the general formula C6H5MgX (wherein X═Cl, Br) is dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (THF), low oxidation potential of the Grignard's reagent (RMgX, wherein R is an alkyl group), which conventionally has been said, can be improved.
In addition, in PATENT LITERATURE 3 and PATENT LITERATURE 4, there has been reported that by using the Grignard's reagent (RMgX) or a magnesium chloride (II) and an organometal compound (an alkylaluminum compound) in combination, to form a complex by making magnesium dimerized in the system, acid resistance of an electrolytic solution can be improved.
Still more, in NON PATENT LITERATURE 2, there has been referred to on progress of reversible dissolution and deposition of magnesium, from the result of cyclic voltammogram and electrode surface analysis, by preparation of an electrolytic solution wherein a magnesium bromide (II) is dissolved in 2-methyltetrahydrofuran in order to enhance safety of the electrolytic solution.

SUMMARY OF INVENTION
Technical Problem
However, any of the electrolytic solutions described in the above literature has a low current value (or current density), which is observed accompanying with dissolution and deposition of magnesium, of ±1 mA or lower (or ±1 mA/cm2 or lower), thus results in requiring long period of time in performing charge-discharge of a battery. That is, it cannot be said a battery with high practicality, due to difficulty of rapid charge-discharge. For example, in PATENT LITERATURE 4, a current value accompanying with dissolution of magnesium is 0.8 mA, and a current value accompanying with deposition of magnesium, is −0.6 mA, which cannot be said to be sufficiently high values.
In addition, an electrolytic solution being used in PATENT LITERATURE 1 and NON PATENT LITERATURE 1 starts decomposition when applied with a voltage of about 2.3 V, therefore it cannot be applied a charge-voltage of 2.3 V or higher. Still more, in PATENT LITERATURE 2, there has been described that oxidative decomposition potential of a phenylmagnesium bromide (C6H5MgX) is 3.8 V, however, practically, in PATENT LITERATURE 4, there has been referred to that it starts decomposition at further low potential (about 2.0 V).
Thus, such a problem is generated that high energy density, which the magnesium ion battery originally has, cannot be utilized sufficiently, because of limitation of charge-discharge voltage depending on decomposition potential of the electrolytic solution.
Another factor regarded as important, in the case of using as a practical battery, includes safety, for which the above electrolytic solution is insufficient. For example, magnesium aluminate (PATENT LITERATURE 1, NON PATENT LITERATURE 1) is a water prohibitive compound classified as the third class of hazardous materials, and the Grignard's reagent (PATENT LITERATURE 2) is an organometal compound having strong inflammability, which remains a problem on safety of the electrolytic solution.
In addition, PATENT LITERATURE 3 and PATENT LITERATURE 4 use a triethylaluminum and a diethylaluminum chloride, respectively, as raw materials, which are converted to a magnesium-aluminum complex within the system, however, since each of the raw materials is a spontaneous combustible substance, they cannot be said to have high safety.
Accordingly, in order to solve the above described problems, it is an object of the present invention to provide an electrochemical device having an electrolytic solution having high current density and high oxidation resistance, as well as high safety, where dissolution and deposition of magnesium progress repeatedly and stably.

Advantageous Effects of Invention
According to the present invention, a practical electrochemical device capable of attaining rapid charge-discharge can be provided, because dissolution and deposition of magnesium progress repeatedly and stably, and it has higher current density of at least over ±1 mA, as compared with a conventional electrolytic solution, as well as very small ion diffusion resistance. Still more, the present invention is capable of preparing a magnesium ion battery having high charging voltage, because the electrolytic solution has a high decomposition voltage of 4.2 V or higher. In addition, the present invention is capable of providing an electrolytic solution having high safety, because of using a simple magnesium salt as a supporting electrolyte, without using a water prohibitive compound or an organometal compound having inflammability. In addition, the present invention is capable of selecting various organic solvents as a solvent, by using the electrolytic solution using a complex.

Example 82
Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) Measurement Using the Electrolytic Solution 1
CV measurement was performed using the electrolytic solution 1 to examine electric characteristics of the electrolytic solution 1.
Specifically, using a three-pole type beaker cell, magnesium (0.5 cm2), vanadium pentaoxide (V2O5) doped with sulfur and magnesium were used for a working electrode, a counter electrode and a reference electrode, respectively. In addition, 2 ml of the electrolytic solution 1 was added into the beaker and the measurement wa performed under conditions of at room temperature (20° C.), a sweep rate of 5 mV/s, and in a range of −1.5 to 1 V. It should be noted that the sweep was performed three cycles. Results thereof are shown in FIG. 1.
In FIG. 1, the horizontal axis (V) shows potential difference of the working electrode, based on potential of the reference electrode, and the vertical axis (mA/cm2) shows a current density obtained by dividing a current value observed at each potential with surface area of the working electrode (the horizontal axis and the vertical axis in graphs of CV measurement shown below represent the same values).
From the results of FIG. 1, oxidation current is observed accompanying with dissolution of magnesium from the working electrode from the vicinity of 0.5 V, and current density at the vicinity of 1 V was about 13.0 mA/cm2. On the other hand, reduction current is observed accompanying with deposition of magnesium at the working electrode from the vicinity of −1 V, and current density at the vicinity of −1.5 V was about −9.0 mA/cm2. Therefore, it has been clarified that by using the electrolytic solution 1, a reversible oxidation-reduction reaction of magnesium occurred, and thus gave high current density. Still more, it has also been found that dissolution and deposition of magnesium progress repeatedly and stably, because decrease in current density was not observed, even in sweep at or subsequent to the second cycle.
Example 83
Evaluation of Oxidation Resistance of the Electrolytic Solution 1
CV measurement was performed using the electrolytic solution 1, similarly as in Example 82, except by setting a sweep rate of 10 mV/s, and a voltage range of −1.5 to 4.2 V. Results thereof are shown in FIG. 2.
As is clear from the results of FIG. 2, even in the case of applying the voltage up to 4.2 V under the sweep rate of 10 mV/s, only oxidation current is observed accompanying with dissolution of magnesium was observed, without observation of an inflection point in the cyclic voltammogram, and thus significant current increase derived from oxidative decomposition of the electrolytic solution, was not observed. In addition, it has been clarified that decomposition of the electrolytic solution was not generated within a voltage range measured, due to the fact that decrease in current density was not observed, even in sweep at or subsequent to the second cycle. That is, decomposition voltage was considered to be 4.2 V or higher. This value is sufficiently high value, as compared with decomposition voltage (2.3 V) of the electrolytic solution, where Mg(ZR11R2mXn)2 (wherein z represents an aluminum, R1 represents an ethyl group, R2 represents a buthyl group and X represents a chlorine, respectively) is dissolved in THF, described in the PATENT LITERATURE 1 and NON PATENT LITERATURE 1; or decomposition voltage (3.8 V) of the electrolytic solution, where an aromatic Grignard's reagent was dissolved in THF, described in the PATENT LITERATURE 2.
Example 84
Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) Measurement Using the Electrolytic Solution 2
CV measurement was performed similarly as the method in Example 82, except by using the electrolytic solution 2 as the electrolytic solution. Results thereof are shown in FIG. 3.
As is clear from the results of FIG. 3, oxidation current is observed accompanying with dissolution of magnesium from the vicinity of 0.5 V, and current density at the vicinity of 1 V was about 6.0 mA/cm2. On the other hand, reduction current is observed accompanying with deposition of magnesium from the vicinity of −0.3 V, and current density at the vicinity of −1.5 V was about −11.0 mA/cm2. Therefore, it has been clarified that by using the electrolytic solution 2, a reversible oxidation-reduction reaction of magnesium occurred, and thus gave high current density. Still more, it has also been found that dissolution and deposition of magnesium progress repeatedly and stably, because decrease in current density was not observed, even in sweep at or subsequent to the second cycle.
Example 85
Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) Measurement Using the Electrolytic Solution 3
CV measurement was performed similarly as the method in Example 82, except by using the electrolytic solution 3 as the electrolytic solution. Results thereof are shown in FIG. 4.
As is clear from the results of FIG. 4, oxidation current is observed accompanying with dissolution of magnesium from the vicinity of 0.2 V, and current density at the vicinity of 1 V was about 4.0 mA/cm2. On the other hand, reduction current is observed accompanying with deposition of magnesium from the vicinity of −0.2 V, and current density at the vicinity of −1.5 V was about −5.0 mA/cm2. Therefore, it has been clarified that by using the electrolytic solution 3, a reversible oxidation-reduction reaction of magnesium occurred, and thus gave high current density. Still more, it has also been found that dissolution and deposition of magnesium progress repeatedly and stably, because decrease in current density was not observed, even in sweep at or subsequent to the second cycle.
Example 86
Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) Measurement Using the Electrolytic Solution 4
CV measurement was performed similarly as the method in Example 82, except by using the electrolytic solution 4 as the electrolytic solution. Results thereof are shown in FIG. 5.
As is clear from the results of FIG. 5, oxidation current is observed accompanying with dissolution of magnesium from the vicinity of 0.7 V, and current density at the vicinity of 1 V was about 6.4 mA/cm2. On the other hand, reduction current is observed accompanying with deposition of magnesium from the vicinity of −0.7 V, and current density at the vicinity of −1.5 V was about −5.1 mA/cm2. Therefore, it has been clarified that by using the electrolytic solution 4, a reversible oxidation-reduction reaction of magnesium occurred, and thus gave high current density. Still more, it has also been found that dissolution and deposition of magnesium progress repeatedly and stably, because decrease in current density was not observed, even in sweep at or subsequent to the second cycle.
Example 87

Therefore, it has been clarified that by using the electrolytic solution 71, a reversible oxidation-reduction reaction of magnesium occurred, and thus gave high current density. Still more, it has also been found that dissolution and deposition of magnesium progress repeatedly and stably, because decrease in current density was not observed, even in sweep at or subsequent to the second cycle.

As is clear from the results of FIG. 39, oxidation current is observed accompanying with dissolution of magnesium from the vicinity of 0.5 V, and current density at the vicinity of 1.0 V was about 16.6 mA/cm2. On the other hand, reduction current is observed accompanying with deposition of magnesium from the vicinity of −0.5 V, and current density at the vicinity of −1.5 V was about −6.4 mA/cm2. Therefore, it has been clarified that by using the electrolytic solution 72, a reversible oxidation-reduction reaction of magnesium occurred, and thus gave high current density. Still more, it has also been found that dissolution and deposition of magnesium progress repeatedly and stably, because decrease in current density was not observed, even in sweep at or subsequent to the second cycle.
Example 121
Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) Measurement Using the Electrolytic Solution 73
CV measurement was performed similarly as the method in Example 82, except by using the electrolytic solution 73 as the electrolytic solution. Results thereof are shown in FIG. 40.
As is clear from the results of FIG. 40, oxidation current is observed accompanying with dissolution of magnesium from the vicinity of 0.5 V, and current density at the vicinity of 1.0 V was about 28.8 mA/cm2. On the other hand, reduction current is observed accompanying with deposition of magnesium from the vicinity of −0.5 V, and current density at the vicinity of −1.5 V was about −15.1 mA/cm2. Therefore, it has been clarified that by using the electrolytic solution 73, a reversible oxidation-reduction reaction of magnesium occurred, and thus gave high current density. Still more, it has also been found that dissolution and deposition of magnesium progress repeatedly and stably, because decrease in current density was not observed, even in sweep at or subsequent to the second cycle.
Example 122
Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) Measurement Using the Electrolytic Solution 74
CV measurement was performed similarly as the method in Example 82, except by using the electrolytic solution 74 as the electrolytic solution. Results thereof are shown in FIG. 41.
As is clear from the results of FIG. 41, oxidation current is observed accompanying with dissolution of magnesium from the vicinity of 0.3 V, and current density at the vicinity of 1.0 V was about 43.5 mA/cm2. On the other hand, reduction current is observed accompanying with deposition of magnesium from the vicinity of −0.9 V, and current density at the vicinity of −1.5 V was about −56.6 mA/cm2. Therefore, it has been clarified that by using the electrolytic solution 74, a reversible oxidation-reduction reaction of magnesium occurred, and thus gave high current density. Still more, it has also been found that dissolution and deposition of magnesium progress repeatedly and stably, because decrease in current density was not observed, even in sweep at or subsequent to the second cycle.
Example 123
Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) Measurement Using the Electrolytic Solution 79

As is clear from the results of FIG. 42, oxidation current is observed accompanying with dissolution of magnesium from the vicinity of 0.2 V, and current density at the vicinity of 1.0 V was about 14.5 mA/cm2. On the other hand, reduction current is observed accompanying with deposition of magnesium from the vicinity of −0.9 V, and current density at the vicinity of −1.5 V was about −3.4 mA/cm2. Therefore, it has been clarified that by using the electrolytic solution 79, a reversible oxidation-reduction reaction of magnesium occurred, and thus gave high current density. Still more, it has also been found that dissolution and deposition of magnesium progress repeatedly and stably, because decrease in current density was not observed, even in sweep at or subsequent to the second cycle.
Example 124
Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) Measurement Using the Electrolytic Solution 81

As is clear from the results of FIG. 43, oxidation current is observed accompanying with dissolution of magnesium from the vicinity of 0.7 V, and current density at the vicinity of 1.0 V was about 1.7 mA/cm2. On the other hand, reduction current is observed accompanying with deposition of magnesium from the vicinity of −0.7 V, and current density at the vicinity of −1.5 V was about −1.3 mA/cm2. Therefore, it has been clarified that by using the electrolytic solution 81, a reversible oxidation-reduction reaction of magnesium occurred, and thus gave high current density. Still more, it has also been found that dissolution and deposition of magnesium progress repeatedly and stably, because decrease in current density was not observed, even in sweep at or subsequent to the second cycle.
Comparative Example 1
CV Measurement Using a Butylmagnesium Chloride (BuMgCl)/Tetrahydrofuran (THF) Solution as the Electrolytic Solution
CV measurement was performed similarly as the method in Example 82, except by using a 2 ml THF solution containing 0.5 M of butylmagnesium chloride (BuMgCl) (produced by Kishida Chemical Co., Ltd.), as the electrolytic solution, instead of the electrolytic solution 1, and by a setting the voltage range at −1.5 to 2.0 V. Results thereof are shown in FIG. 44.
From the results of FIG. 44, it has been clarified that, in the case of using the BuMgCl/THF solution as the electrolytic solution, although Mg dissolved and deposited reversibly, density of current flowing at that time was very low, and current density at the vicinity of 1.5 V was about 0.4 mA/cm2, and current density at the vicinity of −1.5 V was about −0.5 mA/cm2.
Comparative Example 2
CV Measurement Using a Phenylmagnesium Chloride (PhMgCl)/Tetrahydrofuran (THF) Solution as the Electrolytic Solution
CV measurement was performed similarly as the method in Example 82, except by using a 2 ml THF solution containing 0.5 M of phenylmagnesium chloride (PhMgCl) (produced by Kishida Chemical Co., Ltd.), as the electrolytic solution, instead of the electrolytic solution 1, and by a setting the voltage range at −1.0 to 1.0 V. Results thereof are shown in FIG. 45.
From the results of FIG. 45, it has been clarified that, in the case of using the PhMgCl/THF solution as the electrolytic solution, current density was still more decreased as compared with Comparative Example 1, and was about 6.0×10−2 mA/cm2 at the vicinity of 1 V, and was about −8.0×10−2 mA/cm2 at the vicinity of −1 V.
Comparative Example 3
CV Measurement Using a Tetrabutylammonium Perchlorate (Bu4NClO4)/2-Methoxyethanol Solution as the Electrolytic Solution
4.28 g of tetrabutylammonium perchlorate (Bu4NClO4) (Produced by Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.) was dissolved into 25 ml of 2-methoxyethanol to prepare a Bu4NClO4/2-methoxyethanol solution containing 0.5 M of Bu4NClO4. CV measurement was performed similarly as the method in Example 82, except by using said electrolytic solution, instead of the electrolytic solution 1. Results thereof are shown in FIG. 46.
From the results of FIG. 46, it has been clarified that oxidation current decreased in repeating the cycle, and reduction current significantly decreased as compared with the case of FIG. 1. From these facts, it was considered that no reductive decomposition occurred at all in the Bu4NClO4/2-methoxyethanol solution, and the supporting electrolyte (Bu4NClO4) formed a passive state film by oxidative decomposition, resulting in gradual decrease current density. That is, it was considered that 2-methoxyethanol used as the solvent, was stable against oxidation-reduction, and current observed in FIG. 1 was the one accompanying with dissolution and deposition of Mg.
Comparative Example 4
CV Measurement Using a Mg(OTf)2/Ethanol Solution as the Electrolytic Solution
The electrolytic solution containing 0.3 M of Mg(OTf)2 was prepared by similar processing as in Example 1, except by using 25 ml of ethanol instead of 25 ml of 2-methoxyethanol, as the solvent, and setting amount of Mg(OTf)2 to be 2.42 g. CV measurement was performed similarly as the method in Example 82, except by using said solution, instead of the electrolytic solution 1. Results thereof are shown in FIG. 47.
From the results of FIG. 47, it has been clarified that, in the case of using the Mg(OTf)2/ethanol solution as the electrolytic solution, although magnesium dissolved and deposited reversibly, density of current flowing at that time was very low, and current density at the vicinity of 1.0 V was about 0.63 mA/cm2. On the other hand, reduction current was relatively high, and current density at the vicinity of −1.5 V was about −5.3 mA/cm2, however, current density abruptly decreased accompanying with the cycle. This was considered to have occurred because of formation of a passive state film at the electrode surface, by oxidative-reductive decomposition of ethanol used as the solvent.
Comparative Example 5
CV Measurement Using a Mg(OTf)2/Dimethoxyethane Solution as the Electrolytic Solution
The electrolytic solution containing 0.02 M of Mg(OTf)2 was prepared by similar processing as in Example 1, except by using 25 ml of dimethoxyethane instead of 25 ml of 2-methoxyethanol, as the solvent, and setting amount of Mg(OTf)2 to be 0.16 g. As the result, it has been clarified that in the case of dimethoxyethane, solubility of Mg(OTf)2 was low, and it could dissolve only 0.02 M at the highest. CV measurement of the Mg(OTf)2/dimethoxyethane solution was performed similarly as the method in Example 82, except by using said solution as the electrolytic solution, instead of the electrolytic solution 1. Results thereof are shown in FIG. 47.
From the results of FIG. 48, it has been clarified that, in the case of using the Mg(OTf)2/dimethoxyethane solution as the electrolytic solution, although Mg dissolved and deposited reversibly, density of current flowing at that time was very low, and current density at the vicinity of 1.0 V was about 2.6×10−3 mA/cm2, and current density at the vicinity of −1.5 V was about −6.3×10−3 mA/cm2. In addition, similarly as in Comparative Example 4, decrease in current density was observed accompanying with the cycle, and thus it was considered that a passive state film was formed at the electrode surface.
Measurement results of oxidation current density and reduction current density, together with the electrolytic solution, the supporting electrolyte and the solvent, used in Examples 82, and 84 to 124, and Comparative Examples 1 to 5, are shown in the following Table 10 and Table 11.

In comparing Examples 82 to 124 and Comparative Examples 1 to 2, it has been clarified that Grignard's reagent-type electrolytic solution used in Comparative Examples 1 and 2 had current density of ±1 mA/cm2 or lower, whereas any of the electrolytic solutions of the present invention shown in Examples 82 to 124 had high current density. In addition, also even in comparing CV measurement results (Comparative Examples 4 and 5) of other than the Grignard's reagent-type electrolytic solution described in PATENT LITERATURE 3 and 4, they have been clarified to have clearly high current value (or current density).
In addition, as is clear from the results of Example 83, it has been clarified that use of the electrolytic solution of the present invention is capable of responding to charging under high voltage, in the case of using the electrolytic solution of the present invention as the electrolytic solution for the electrochemical device such as a battery, a capacitor or the like, due to having an extremely high decomposition voltage of the electrolytic solution of 4.2 V or higher.
Comparative Example 3 is the result of using the electrolytic solution other than a magnesium salt, and from said result, it was able to prove that the electrolytic solution itself of the present invention was not redox-decomposed, due to having low current density.
Still more, the electrolytic solutions shown in Comparative Examples 4 and 5 showed extremely low current density, as well as showed decrease in current density accompanying with the cycle, while the electrolytic solutions of the present invention did not cause decrease in current density accompanying with the cycle at all. From these results, in ethanol of Comparative Example 4, or dimethoxyethane of Comparative Example 5, it is considered to form a passive state film at the electrode surface, by oxidative-reductive decomposition of the solvent itself. On the other hand, it has been clarified that in the electrolytic solution of the present invention, decomposition of the solvent itself was suppressed, and only dissolution and deposition of magnesium progressed efficiently and selectively.
From these results, the electrolytic solution of the present invention is the one which is capable of providing the electrochemical device having rapid charge-discharge capability, when used in the electrochemical device, due to having high current density, as well as being capable of charging under high voltage.
Example 125
Measurement of Alternating Current Impedance of the Electrolytic Solutions 2 and 3
Alternating current impedance was measured using the electrolytic solutions 2 and 3 to analyze resistance components of the electrolytic solutions 2 and 3.
Specifically, using a three-pole type beaker cell, Mg alloy (AZ31, 2 cm×1.5 cm)), V2O5 and magnesium were used for a working electrode, a counter electrode and a reference electrode, respectively, and distance between the working electrode and the opposite electrode was set at 5 mm. Measurement was performed by adding 2 ml of the electrolytic solution 2 or 3 into said beaker, under conditions of an initial potential of 0.1 V, relative to the reference electrode, a frequency region of from 20 kHz to 20 mHz, and an amplitude of 10 mV. The measurement results of alternating current impedance are shown in FIGS. 49 and 50.
From the results of FIGS. 49 and 50, it has been clarified that total resistance value was each as low as about 120Ω, and diffusion rate of the magnesium ion in the electrolytic solution was high.
Comparative Example 6
Measurement of Alternating Current Impedance of a Butylmagnesium Chloride (BuMgCl)/Tetrahydrofuran (THF) Solution
Alternating current impedance was measured similarly as in Example 125, except by using a THF solution containing 0.5 M of butylmagnesium chloride (BuMgCl) (produced by Kishida Chemical Co., Ltd.), prepared in Comparative Example 1, instead of the electrolytic solution 2 or 3. Results thereof are shown in FIG. 51.
From the result, it has been estimated that diffusion rate of the ion in the electrolytic solution was slow, due to having very high total resistance value of about 8.5×104Ω.
From the results of Example 125 and comparative Example 6, it was considered that by using the electrolytic solution of the present invention, current density in CV was dramatically enhanced, because of occurrence of rapid diffusion of the magnesium ion formed by dissolving of magnesium, as compared with the Grignard's reagent. Therefore, it was considered that the electrolytic solution of the present invention other than the electrolytic solutions 2 and 3 also showed similarly rapid diffusion, due to having high current density.
Experiment Example 1
Synthesis of a Mg[(OTf)2(2-Methoxyethanol)2] Complex and Confirmation Thereof
(1) Synthesis of the Complex


    
    
        Under nitrogen atmosphere, 2.42 g (0.0075 mol) of magnesium trifluoromethanesulfonate Mg[(OTf)2](produced by Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.), 1.14 g (0.0150 mol) of 2-methoxyethanol (produced by Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.) and 15 ml of 1,2-dimethoxyethane (produced by Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.) were sequentially put into a reactor and stirred under heating at 80° C. for 5 hours. After filtration separation of insoluble matters by suction filtration, the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain a white solid. Next, by adding 15 ml of toluene and stirring under suspension, and by drying under reduced pressure the white solid recovered by filtration, the Mg[(OTf)2(2-methoxyethanol)2] complex was obtained. Said complex was named a complex 1.

(2) 1H-NMR Measurement of the Complex

    
    


The isolated complex 1 was dissolved in deuterated acetone (acetone-d6, produced by Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.) to measure 1H-NMR using an NMR measurement equipment. Shift values of measured peaks (based on tetramethylsilane, as standard) are shown below.
1H NMR (CD3 COCD3); δ=5.51 (br, 1H), 3.84-3.76 (m, 2H), 3.60-3.55 (t, 2H), 3.42 (s, 3H)
In addition, 1H NMR of 2-methoxyethanol itself was measured using the NMR measurement equipment. Results thereof are shown below.
1H NMR (CD3 COCD3); δ=3.62-3.3.58 (m, 2H), 3.54 (br, 1H), 3.41-3.38 (t, 2H), 3.28 (s, 3H)
Comparing the 1H-NMR result of the complex 1 with the 1H-NMR result of 2-methoxyethanol itself, it has been clarified that shift value of the complex 1 was shifted toward a lower magnetic field side. Therefore, it was estimated that the complex 1 is a complex in which 2-methoxyethanol coordinated to Mg(OTf)2.
(3) Quantitative Determination of Magnesium by Chelatometric Titration
The complex 1 was subjected to chelatometric titration [using a 0.01 M/EDTA aqueous solution, and eriochrome black T, as an indicator].
That is, firstly, 0.5 g of complex 1 was weighed accurately, which was dissolved into ion exchanged water and set to a constant volume of 50 ml. Into 5 ml of this solution, several drops of a 3M aqueous solution of ammonium hydroxide (produced by Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.), and 2 ml of a 1 M aqueous solution of ammonium hydroxide-ammonium chloride (produced by Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.), and several drops of eriochrome black T (produced by Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.), as an indicator, were sequentially added to prepare a sample solution. After that, chelatometric titration was performed using a 0.01 M EDTA aqueous solution (produced by Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.), whose concentration was specified, in advance, using a magnesium standard solution (concentration: 200 ppm).
As a result, content of magnesium in the complex was 5.1 w/w %. This was equal to the content of magnesium of 5.1 w/w %, calculated theoretically assuming that a structure of the complex 1 is Mg(OTf)2(2-methoxyethanol)2](relative error: 5% or less). From this, a structure of the complex 1 was estimated to be Mg(OTf)2(2-methoxyethanol)2] coordinated with 2 molecules of 2-methoxyethanol.
(4) Structure Analysis of a Ligand
The complex 1 was supplied to a gas generated by heating—mass spectrometry to identify a structure of the ligand in the complex.
That is, the complex 1 (1 mg) was filled into a thermal decomposition apparatus, in a state of solid sample, and gradually heated from 40° C. up to 400° C. under a temperature increasing rate of 20° C./minute to measure gas components generated using the mass spectrometer. Results thereof are shown in FIG. 52 and FIG. 53.
It should be noted that the horizontal axis of FIG. 52 and FIG. 53 shows measurement time (corresponding to thermal decomposition temperature), FIG. 52 shows a chart of a total ion peak obtained by the result of the mass spectrometry, and FIG. 53 shows a chart where each fragment ion peak of m/z 45, m/z 58 and m/z 76 observed in mass spectrometry of 2-methoxyethanol was extracted from the total ion peak. From these results, it has been clarified that total of each fragment ion peak of m/z 45, m/z 58 and m/z 76 nearly coincides with the total ion peak. Therefore, the ligand contained in the complex 1 has been identified to be 2-methoxyethanol.
Experiment Example 2
Synthesis of a Mg[(OTf)2(2-(Hydroxymethyl)Tetrahydrofuran)2] Complex and Confirmation Thereof
(1) Synthesis of the Complex
The Mg[(OTf)2(2-(hydroxymethyl)tetrahydrofuran)2] complex was obtained similarly as Experiment Example 1, except by using 1.53 g (0.0150 mol) of 2-(hydroxymethyl)tetrahydrofuran (produced by Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.), instead of 1.14 g (0.0150 mol) of 2-methoxyethanol. Said complex was named a complex 2.
(2) 1H-NMR Measurement of the Complex
The isolated complex 2 was dissolved in deuterated acetone (acetone-d6, produced by Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.) to measure 1H-NMR using an NMR measurement equipment. Shift values of measured peaks (based on tetramethylsilane, as standard) are shown below:

From the results of Examples 136 to 139, it has been clarified that by using the magnesium complex pertaining to the present invention as a supporting electrolyte, a general purpose organic solvent can be used as an electrolytic solution, without using the compound represented by the following general formula [2] pertaining to the present invention, and still more high current density is attained.
In addition, in Example 138 and Comparative Example 7, current density was measured using the same solvent and the complex in nearly the same concentration, except that the magnesium complex itself was different, and there was no current flow in known magnesium complex, however, in the case of using the magnesium complex pertaining to the present invention, there was observed 2.1 mA/cm2 as an oxidation current and −1.2 mA/cm2 as a reduction current, and thus it has been shown that by using specific magnesium complex, effect as the electrolytic solution can be obtained.
Still more, in comparing Examples 136 and 139 with Comparative Example 5, it has been clarified that in the case of using the magnesium salt as the supporting electrolyte, current density was very low, however, in the case of using the magnesium complex pertaining to the present invention, current density was very high.
In the magnesium complex pertaining to the present invention, as shown in the general formula [10], two molecules of the compound represented by the general formula [2] pertaining to the present invention are chelated to magnesium, however, in the Mg(acac)2 complex having a similar coordination structure, oxidation-reduction current was not observed at all. From this fact, it has been clarified that the magnesium complex pertaining to the present invention has relatively mild chelating effect, as compared with the Mg(acac)2 complex.
Therefore, from the results of the above Examples 136 and 139, as well as Comparative Examples 5 and 7, the electrolytic solution obtained from the complex pertaining to the present invention is estimated to become the electrolytic solution which is capable of repeating charge-discharge, due to rapid progress of elimination of the ligand (the compound represented by the general formula [2] pertaining to the present invention) from the magnesium complex in a reduction reaction (a deposition reaction of magnesium), while easy occurrence of re-coordination of the ligand (the compound represented by the general formula [2] pertaining to the present invention) to the dissolved magnesium ion, in an oxidation reaction (a dissolution reaction of magnesium).
It should be noted that also in the electrolytic solution of Examples 82 to 124, it is estimated that, due to generation of the magnesium complex where 2 molecules of ligands (the compounds represented by the general formula [2]) are coordinated to the magnesium ion in the supporting electrolyte, current density is significantly enhanced.
