Abstract: Lithium-ion secondary cell has a high energy desity, stable and high working voltage, wide working temperature and long working term. It is a safe and clean energy resource without pollution. At present, lithium hexafluorophosphate is used as a conducting electrolyte lithium salt in lithium-ion secondary batteries. But lithium hexafluorophosphate as conducting electrolyte lithium salt has some disadvantages such as hydrolysis and instability. Lithium bis(heptafluoroisopropyl) tetrafluorophosphate Li[(C3F7)2PF4] was received by Simons process from diisopropylchlorophosphane in this paper. As an electrolyte of Li ion secondary cell, Li[(C3F7)2PF4] had lower vapor pressure than LiPF6 in the solvent at the same temperature, comparable conductivity and oxidation stability in the same concentration at room temperature. It was worth mentioning that Li[(C3F7)2PF4] has an excellent stability towards hydrolysis. The synthesis process is safe and easily controlled.

Key words: Simons process, Lithium ion secondary cell, Electrolyte
