Title: An organic super-electron-donor as a high energy density negative electrolyte for nonaqueous flow batteries

Abstract

An organic “super-electron-donor” is well-suited as a negative electrolyte for nonaqueous redox flow batteries, with a highly negative 2 + /0 reduction potential, a low mass per electron stored, and good solubility in CH 3 CN in both redox states.
