Accordingly, for reaction of a monolayer of BMP-TFSI and coadsorbed Li at room temperature one would expect a kinetically controlled, complex mixture between remaining BMP-TFSI like species (coadsorbed with Li, as indicated in Table ), the initial reaction products as indicated in Table , molecular reaction intermediates resulting from the stepwise Li-induced further decomposition of the species, and finally contributions from the different binary adsorbed species (Table ). The same is true also for reaction between bulk BMP-TFSI and Li. This also means that under such conditions the exact product composition will depend sensitively on the reaction parameters.
