  2. Abstract • The ion association and dissociation dynamics in thiocyanate salt solutions will be probed using 2D-IR spectroscopy allowing for the determination of equilibrium association (or dissociation) rate constants of the thyocyanate anion and its counter cation. Thiocyanate’s nitrile stretch, which is sensitive to ionic interactions, was used in revealing the interaction among the thiocyanate ion and the cation in solution. The optimal solution parameters for the thiocyanate salts was determined by a one to one area ratio of the nitrile vibrational frequency of free thiocyanate to the contact ion pair using one dimensional infrared spectroscopy.
