Abstract
1,10-Phenanthroline-5,6-dione (phendione)-based transition-metal complexes are known for their use in pharmacological and catalysis applications. However, their application in electrochemical energy storage has not been investigated thus far. Herein, the feasibility of employing phendione-transition-metal complexes was investigated for electrochemical charge storage by taking advantage of the reversible redox activity of both carbonyl groups and transition metal center, contributing to augmented charge storage. Interestingly, the chemistry of the counter ion in the studied complexes effectively tuned the solubility and improved the cycling stability. Although further studies are required to limit the solubility and active-species shuttle, this study explores the bottlenecks of phendione-transition-metal complexes as electrode materials for solid-electrode-format batteries.
