Magnesium anodization was examined in room temperature AlCl 3 :EMIC and AlCl 3 :DMPIC ionic liquids, where EMIC = 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride and DMPIC = 1,2-dimethyl-3-propylimidazolium chloride. For all melts, the AlCl 3 :organic chloride mole ratio was <1, yielding chloride-rich (i.e., basic) compositions. The rate of magnesium anodization was limited by diffusion of chloride ions to the electrode surface. From the Cottrell slopes for magnesium anodization at a Mg disk electrode and for chloride oxidation at a Pt disk electrode, the chloride stoichiometry of the anodization process in AlCl 3 :EMIC was determined to be 4.1 (± 0.5), corresponding to the formation of soluble MgCl 4 2 . Similar chloride stoichiometry was found in AlCl 3 :DMPIC. MgCl 2 buffers the melt to approximate neutrality from the basic side, dissolving as MgCl 4 2- . Magnesium metal was chemically stable in basic AlCl 3 :DMPIC, but it reacted completely and irreversibly with basic AlCl 3 :EMIC to produce colored organic byproducts. Some comments are made on the acidity of NiCl 2 and CdCl 2 in the basic melts.
