Abstract Lithium‐organosulfur (Li‐OS) batteries, despite possessing high theoretical specific capacity, encounter a few practical challenges, including unsatisfactory lifespan and low active material utilization under realistic conditions. Here, diisoropyl xanthogen polysulfide (DIXPS) has been selected as a model organosulfur compound to investigate the practical feasibility of Li‐OS batteries under realistic conditions. A well‐designed freestanding carbon sponge decorated with Fe ₃ N nanoparticles (C@Fe ₃ N) is introduced into the Li‐OS cells as a scaffold for both Li and DIXPS. The lithiophilic property of the C@Fe ₃ N host guides uniform lithium deposition at the anode, and the catalysis of the DIXPS conversion reaction promotes the kinetics at the cathode. Impressively, the synergistic effect of C@Fe ₃ N leads to an extremely stable cycling performance over 1 000 cycles in a Li‐OS full cell under realistic conditions.
