Abstract
Current research strives to create sustainable and ecofriendly organic electrode materials (OEMs) due to the rising concerns about traditional inorganic electrode materials that call for substantial resource consumption in battery manufacturing. However, OEMs often exhibit unbalanced performance, with high capacity conflicting with a long lifespan. Herein, a 2D fully conjugated covalent organic framework featuring abundant C═O and C═N groups (HTPT-COF) was strategically synthesized by coupling 2,3,7,8-tetraamino-1,4,6,9-tetraketone with hexaketocyclohexane octahydrate. It stabilizes the enriched active centers by an extended π-conjugated skeleton, thereby affording a high theoretical capacity in conjunction with potential structure stability. To further unlock the barriers of fast charge, the HTPT-COF was interwoven around highly conductive carbon nanotubes, creating a robust core-sheath heterostructure (HTPT-COF@CNT). Consequently, the crafted HTPT-COF@CNT achieves large reversible capacities of 507.7 mA h g-1, high-rate performance (247.8 mA h g-1 at 20.0 A g-1), and long-term durability (1000 cycles). Aiming to streamline the process and cut the cost of battery manufacturing, all-organic symmetric batteries were well fabricated using HTPT-COF@CNT as both cathode and anode, demonstrating high energy/power density (up to 191.7 W h kg-1 and 3800.3 W kg-1, respectively) and long-term stability over 1000 cycles. Such HTPT-COF@CNT represents a promising sustainable electrode that effectively addresses irreconcilable contradictions encountered by OEMs, boosting the development of advanced organic batteries with high capacity and cycling stability.

Abstract
Macrocyclic arenes represent one of the most important and intensively investigated entities in supramolecular chemistry. However, research on the redox activities of macrocyclic arenes, especially their isolable and crystalline polyradical analogues, has been rarely reported. Here, we present the synthesis, redox activity, and application of methylene-bridged macrocyclic phenothiazines, where polyradical cations are successfully isolated and unambiguously characterized for the first time. This research provides an effective method for preparing polyradical macrocycles, which expands the scope of investigation into macrocyclic arenes and their potential applications.

Abstract
Distinct from "rocking-chair" lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), the unique anionic intercalation chemistry on the cathode side of dual-ion batteries (DIBs) endows them with intrinsic advantages of low cost, high voltage, and eco-friendly, which is attracting widespread attention, and is expected to achieve the next generation of large-scale energy storage applications. Although the electrochemical reactions on the anode side of DIBs are similar to that of LIBs, in fact, to match the rapid insertion kinetics of anions on the cathode side and consider the compatibility with electrolyte system which also serves as an active material, the anode materials play a very important role, and there is an urgent demand for rational structural design and performance optimization. A review and summarization of previous studies will facilitate the exploration and optimization of DIBs in the future. Here, we summarize the development process and working mechanism of DIBs and exhaustively categorize the latest research of DIBs anode materials and their applications in different battery systems. Moreover, the structural design, reaction mechanism and electrochemical performance of anode materials are briefly discussed. Finally, the fundamental challenges, potential strategies and perspectives are also put forward. It is hoped that this review could shed some light for researchers to explore more superior anode materials and advanced systems to further promote the development of DIBs.

Abstract
Rationally designed organic redox-active materials have attracted numerous interests due to their excellent electrochemical performance and reasonable sustainability. However, they often suffer from poor cycling stability, intrinsic low operating potential, and poor rate performance. Herein, a novel Donor-Acceptor (D-A) bipolar polymer with n-type pyrene-4,5,9,10-tetraone unit storing Li cations and p-type carbazole unit which attracts anions and provides polymerization sites is employed as a cathode for lithium-ion batteries through in situ electropolymerization. The multiple redox reactions and boosted kinetics by the D-A structure lead to excellent electrochemical performance of a high discharge capacity of 202 mA h g-1 at 200 mA g-1, impressive working potential (2.87 and 4.15 V), an outstanding rate capability of 119 mA h g-1 at 10 A g-1 and a noteworthy energy density up to 554 Wh kg-1. This strategy has significant implications for the molecule design of bipolar organic cathode for high cycling stability and high energy density.

Abstract
Carbonyl rich conjugated polymer electrode materials for lithium-ion batteries possessed the advantages of strong molecular design ability, abundance and high theoretical capacity. In this work, a Co2+ coordinated conjugated polymer using 2,3,5,6-tetraamino-p-benzoquinone (TABQ) as building block was constructed and developed as electrode material for all organic symmetric lithium-ion batteries, outputting a specific capacity of over 100 mAh g-1 after 50 cycles at 50 mA g-1. Performances of Co-TABQ in half cells were explored. The Co-TABQ cathode delivered a capacity of 133.3 mAh g-1 after 150 cycles at 20 mA g-1. When cycled at higher current density of 500 mA g-1, the capacity gradually increased to 109.4 mAh g-1 after 4000 cycles. The Co-TABQ anode displayed a stable capacity of 568.6 mAh g-1 at 1 A g-1. The charge transfer within the electrode was greatly reduced due to the metallic centers in the extended conjugated skeleton, and the reversible Li+ storage was achieved by the active C=O and imine groups. This work showed the great potential of metal mediated conjugated polymer in Lithium-ion batteries.

Abstract
Versatile nitrogen-centered organic redox-active molecules have gained significant attention in alkali metal-ion batteries (AMIBs) due to their low cost, low toxicity, and ease of preparation. Specially, their multiple reaction categories (anion/cation insertion types of reaction) and higher operating voltage, when compared to traditional conjugated carbonyl materials, underscore their promising prospects. However, the high solubility of nitrogen-centered redox active materials in organic electrolyte and their low electronic conductivity contribute to inferior cycling performance, sluggish reaction kinetics, and limited rate capability. This review provides a detailed overview of nitrogen-centered redox-active materials, encompassing their redox chemistry, solutions to overcome shortcomings, characterization of charge storage mechanisms, and recent progress. Additionally, prospects and directions are proposed for future investigations. It is anticipated that this review will stimulate further exploration of underlying mechanisms and interface chemistry through in situ characterization techniques, thereby promoting the practical application of nitrogen-centered redox-active materials in AMIBs.

Abstract
Organic battery electrode materials offer the unique opportunity for full cells to operate in an anion-rocking chair mode. For this configuration a pair of p-type redox-active electrode materials is required with a substantial potential gap between their redox processes. We herein investigate viologen-functionalized polystyrenes as negative electrode paired with a phenothiazine polymer as positive electrode in all-organic full cells. The 10 % crosslinked viologen polymer X10 -PVBV gave better performance than the linear PVBV and was employed in a full cell as negative electrode with cross-linked poly(3-vinyl-N-methylphenothiazine) (X-PVMPT) as positive electrode. Three cell configurations regarding the voltage range were investigated, of which one with an operating potential of 0.9 V gave the highest performance. The full cell delivered a specific discharge capacity of 64 mA h g-1 (of X-PVMPT) in the first cycle and a capacity retention of 79 % after 100 cycles. This is one of only few reported anion rocking chair all-organic cells and the first employing a phenothiazine-based positive electrode material.

Abstract
Metal-organic framework (MOF) is a class of porous materials providing an excellent platform for engineering heterogeneous catalysis. We herein report the design of MOF Zr-PZDB consisting of Zr6-clusters and PZDB (PZDB = 4,4'-(phenazine-5,10-diyl)dibenzoate) linkers, which served as the heterogeneous donor catalyst for enhanced electron donor-acceptor (EDA) photoactivation. The high local concentration of dihydrophenazine active centers in Zr-PZDB can promote the EDA interaction, therefore resulting in superior catalytic performance over homogeneous counterparts. The crowded environment of Zr-PZDB can protect the dihydrophenazine active center from being attacked by radical species. Zr-PZDB efficiently catalyzes the Minisci-type reaction of N-heterocycles with a series of C-H coupling partners, including ethers, alcohols, non-activated alkanes, amides, and aldehydes. Zr-PZDB also enables the coupling reaction of aryl sulfonium salts with heterocycles. The catalytic activity of Zr-PZDB extends to late-stage functionalization of bioactive and drug molecules, including Nikethamide, Admiral, and Myristyl Nicotinate. Systematical spectroscopy study and analysis support the EDA interaction between Zr-PZDB and pyridinium salt or aryl sulfonium salt, respectively. Photoactivation of the MOF-based EDA adduct triggers an intra-complex single electron transfer from donor to acceptor, giving open-shell radical species for cross-coupling reactions. This research represents the first example of MOF-enabled heterogeneous EDA photoactivation.

Abstract
Organic electrode materials are promising for batteries. However, the reported organic electrodes are often facing the challenges of low specific capacity, low voltage, poor rate capability and vague charge storage mechanisms, etc. Isomers are good platform to investigate the charge storage mechanisms and enhance the performance of batteries, which, however, have not been focused in batteries. Herein, two isomers are reported for batteries. As a result, the isomer tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) could store two monovalent anions reversibly, deriving an average discharge voltage of 1.05 V and a specific capacity of 220 mAh g-1 at a current density of 2 C. On the other hand, the other isomer tetrathianaphthalene could only reversibly store one monovalent anion and upon further oxidation, it would undergo an irreversible solid-state molecular rearrangement to TTF. The molecular rearrangement was confirmed by electrochemical performances, X-ray diffraction patterns, nuclear magnetic resonance spectra, and 1H detected heteronuclear multiple bond correlation spectra. These results suggested the small structural change could lead to a big difference in anion storage, and we hope this work will stimulate more attention to the structural design for boosting the performance of organic batteries.

Abstract
Herein, the self-reinforced inductive effect derived from coexistence of both p- and n-type redox-active motifs in a single organic molecule is presented. Molecular orbital energy levels of each motif are dramatically tuned, which leads to the higher oxidation and the lower reduction potentials. The self-reinforced inductive effect of the symmetric bipolar organic molecule, N,N'-dimethylquinacridone (DMQA), is corroborated, by both experimental and theoretical methods. Furthermore, its redox mechanism and reaction pathway in the Li+ -battery system are scrutinized. DMQA shows excellent capacity retention at the operating voltage of 3.85 and 2.09 V (vs Li+ /Li) when used as the cathode and anode, respectively. Successful operation of DMQA electrodes in a symmetric all-organic battery is also demonstrated. The comprehensive insight into the energy storage capability of the symmetric bipolar organic molecule and its self-reinforced inductive effect is provided. Thus, a new class of organic electrode materials for symmetric all-organic batteries as well as conventional rechargeable batteries can be conceived.

Abstract
There has been increasing demand for high-energy density and long-cycle life rechargeable batteries to satisfy the ever-growing requirements for next-generation energy storage systems. Among all available candidates, dual-ion batteries (DIBs) have drawn tremendous attention in the past few years from both academic and industrial battery communities because of their fascinating advantages of high working voltage, excellent safety, and environmental friendliness. However, the dynamic imbalance between the electrodes and the mismatch of traditional electrolyte systems remain elusive. To fully employ the advantages of DIBs, the overall optimization of anode materials, cathode materials, and compatible electrolyte systems is urgently needed. Here, we review the development history and the reaction mechanisms involved in DIBs. Afterward, the optimization strategies toward DIB materials and electrolytes are highlighted. In addition, their energy-related applications are also provided. Lastly, the research challenges and possible development directions of DIBs are outlined.

Abstract
The integration of multiple electron-accepting skeletons into polymeric structures is the forefront of materials research for high-energy sustainable energy storage. Herein, we report the synthesis of two novel non-conjugated polymers (NCP1 and NCP2) and a model small molecule (M1) incorporated with bio-derived 4-elecron-uptaking carbonylpyridinium redox-units for alkali-ion batteries. Compared to model small molecules, the polymers exhibited improved battery performance when applied as anode materials for Li-, Na-, and K-ion batteries (LIBs/SIBs/KIBs) owing to their high electrochemical activity and effective ability to suppress dissolution. By judicious selection of the benzothiadiazole redox-active linker, the performance of NCP2 was further enhanced, delivering the highest capacity and the best cycling stability; at mass loadings of up to 3.5 and 4.7 mg cm-2, the specific capacity remained at 215 and 150 mAh g-1 after 200 cycles, respectively. The Li+/Na+/K+ insertion/extraction mechanisms of NCP2 were elucidated based on experimental analyses. The insertion/extraction of Li+ was much faster than that of Na+ and K+. This study broadens the family of bio-derived carbonylpyridinium-based polymer materials for next-generation electrochemical energy storage applications.

Abstract
Dihydrophenazines are receiving increasing attention due to applications in numerous fields of chemistry, from light emission to organo-photocatalysis. Despite this growing interest and numerous works involving the preparation of radical cations based on this scaffold, the isolation and study of the aromatic dications obtained by 2 electron oxidation of dihydrophenazines is still mostly unexplored. From this point of view, along with the substitution at the N atoms generally used to tune dihydrophenazine properties, the π-extension of the phenazine core could play a crucial role in making dicationic states accessible. This could result in an extension of the knowledge on these elusive dications and in potentially highly interesting applications ranging from material science to molecular actuators.

Abstract
Dual-ion batteries (DIBs) exhibit a distinct set of performance advantages and disadvantages due to their unique storage mechanism. However, the current cyclability/energy density tradeoffs of anion storage paired with the intrinsic required electrolyte loadings of conventional DIBs preclude their widespread adoption as an alternative to lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Despite this, their reduced desolvation penalty and low-cost electrode materials may warrant their employment for low-temperature and/or grid storage applications. To expand beyond these applications, this Perspective reviews the prospects of solid salt storage and halogen intercalation-conversion as viable methods to increase DIB energy densities to a level on-par with LIBs. Fundamental limitations of conventional DIBs are examined, technology spaces are proposed where they can make meaningful impact over LIBs, and potential strategies are outlined to improve cell-level energy densities necessary for the widespread adoption of DIBs.

Abstract
Organic p-type cathode materials have recently attracted increasing attention due to their higher redox potentials and rate capabilities in comparison to n-type cathodes. However, most of the p-type cathodes based on one-electron redox still suffer from limited stability and low specific capacity (<150 mAh g-1 ). Herein, two polymers, conjugated poly(diethyldihydrophenazine vinylene) (CPP) and non-conjugated poly(diethyldihydrophenazine ethylidene) (NCPP) containing two-electron redox dihydrophenazine, have been developed as p-type cathode materials. It is experimentally and theoretically found that the conjugated linkage among the redox centers in polymer CPP is more favorable for the effective charge delocalization on the conjugated polymer backbone and the sufficient oxidation in the higher potential region (3.3-4.2 V vs. Li/Li+ ). Consequently, the CPP cathode displays a higher reversible specific capacity of 184 mAh g-1 with excellent cycling stability.

Abstract
Organic radical batteries (ORBs) with radical-branched polymers as cathode materials represent a valuable alternative to meet the continuously increasing demand on energy storage. However, the low theoretical capacities of current radical-contained compounds strongly hamper their practical applications. To address this issue, a chemically robust polynitrosoarene (tris(4-nitrosophenyl)amine) with a pronounced radical property is rationally designed as an efficient cathode for ORBs. Its unique multi-nitroso structure displays remarkably reversible charge/discharge capability and a superior capacity up to 300 mA h g-1 (93% theoretical capacity) after 100 cycles at 100 mA g-1 within a broad potential window of 1.3-4.3 V (vs Li+/Li). Moreover, the ultra-long cycle life is also achieved at 1000 mA g-1 with 85% preservation of the capacity after 1000 cycles, making it the best-reported organic radical cathode material for lithium-ion batteries.

Abstract
AbstractOrganic electrode materials (OEMs) can deliver remarkable battery performance for metal-ion batteries (MIBs) due to their unique molecular versatility, high flexibility, versatile structures, sustainable organic resources, and low environmental costs. Therefore, OEMs are promising, green alternatives to the traditional inorganic electrode materials used in state-of-the-art lithium-ion batteries. Before OEMs can be widely applied, some inherent issues, such as their low intrinsic electronic conductivity, significant solubility in electrolytes, and large volume change, must be addressed. In this review, the potential roles, energy storage mechanisms, existing challenges, and possible solutions to address these challenges by using molecular and morphological engineering are thoroughly summarized and discussed. Molecular engineering, such as grafting electron-withdrawing or electron-donating functional groups, increasing various redox-active sites, extending conductive networks, and increasing the degree of polymerization, can enhance the electrochemical performance, including its specific capacity (such as the voltage output and the charge transfer number), rate capability, and cycling stability. Morphological engineering facilitates the preparation of different dimensional OEMs (including 0D, 1D, 2D, and 3D OEMs) via bottom-up and top-down methods to enhance their electron/ion diffusion kinetics and stabilize their electrode structure. In summary, molecular and morphological engineering can offer practical paths for developing advanced OEMs that can be applied in next-generation rechargeable MIBs.

Abstract
All-organic symmetric lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) show promising prospects in sustainable energy storage systems, due to their environmental friendliness, structural diversity and low cost. Nevertheless, it remains a great challenge to explore suitable electrode materials and achieve excellent battery performance for all-organic symmetric LIBs. Herein, a squaraine-anthraquinone polymer (PSQ) electrode material was designed through rational molecular engineering. The well-designed extended π-conjugated system, donor-acceptor structure, abundant redox-active sites and rational manipulation of weak inter-/intramolecular interactions endow the PSQ electrode with outstanding electrochemical performance. The capacity of the PSQ cathode can be optimized to 311.5 mA h g-1 by in situ carbon-template polymerization. Impressively, PSQ-based all-organic symmetric LIBs displayed high reversible capacity (170.8 mA h g-1 at 50 mA g-1), excellent rate performance (64.9% capacity retention at 4000 mA g-1 vs. 50 mA g-1), ultralong cycle life up to 30 000 cycles at 2000 mA g-1 and 97% capacity retention after 2500 cycles at 500 mA g-1, which is one of the best comprehensive battery performances among the all-organic LIBs reported thus far.

Abstract
Organic electrode materials (OEMs) emerge as one of the most promising candidates for the next-generation rechargeable batteries, mainly owing to their advantages of bountiful resources, high theoretical capacity, structural designability, and sustainability. However, OEMs usually suffer from poor electronic conductivity and unsatisfied stability in common organic electrolytes, ultimately leading to their deteriorating output capacity and inferior rate capability. Making clear of the issues from microscale to macroscale level is of great importance for the exploration of novel OEMs. Herein, the challenges and advanced strategies to boost the electrochemical performance of redox-active OEMs for sustainable secondary batteries are systematically summarized. Particularly, the characterization technologies and computational methods to elucidate the complex redox reaction mechanisms and confirm the organic radical intermediates of OEMs have been introduced. Moreover, the structural design of OEMs-based full cells and the outlook for OEMs are further presented. This review will shed light on the in-depth understanding and development of OEMs for sustainable secondary batteries.

Abstract
Air-rechargeable zinc batteries are a promising candidate for self-powered battery systems since air is ubiquitous and cost-free. However, they are still in their infancy and their electrochemical performance is unsatisfactory due to the bottlenecks of materials and device design. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop creative air-rechargeable Zn battery systems. Herein, an air-rechargeable Zn battery with H+-based chemistry was developed in a mild ZnSO4 electrolyte for the first time, where benzo[i]benzo[6,7]quinoxalino[2,3-a]benzo[6,7]quinoxalino[2,3-c]phenazine-5,8,13,16,21,24-hexaone (BQPH) was employed as cathode material. In this Zn/BQPH battery, a Zn2+ coordination with adjacent C═O and C═N groups leads to an inhomogeneous charge distribution in the BQPH molecule, which induces the H+ uptake on the remaining four pairs of the C═O and C═N groups in subsequent discharge processes. Interestingly, the large potential difference between the discharged cathode of the Zn/BQPH battery and oxygen triggers the redox reaction between them spontaneously, in which the discharged cathode can be oxidized by oxygen in air. In this process, the cathode potential will gradually rise along with H+ removal, and the discharged Zn/BQPH battery can be air-recharged without an external power supply. As a result, the air-rechargeable Zn/BQPH batteries exhibit enhanced electrochemical performance by fast H+ uptake/removal. This work will broaden the horizons of air-rechargeable zinc batteries and provide a guidance to develop high-performance and sustainable aqueous self-powered systems.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COF) possess a robust and porous crystalline structure, making them an appealing candidate for energy storage. Herein, we report an exfoliated polyimide COF composite (P-COF@SWCNT) prepared by an in situ condensation of anhydride and amine on the single-walled carbon nanotubes as advanced anode for potassium-ion batteries (PIBs). Numerous active sites exposed on the exfoliated frameworks and the various open pathways promote the highly efficient ion diffusion in the P-COF@SWCNT while preventing irreversible dissolution in the electrolyte. During the charging/discharging process, K+ is engaged in the carbonyls of imide group and naphthalene rings through the enolization and π-K+ effect, which is demonstrated by the DFT calculation and XPS, ex-situ FTIR, Raman. As a result, the prepared P-COF@SWCNT anode enables an incredibly high reversible specific capacity of 438 mA h g-1 at 0.05 A g-1 and extended stability. The structural advantage of P-COF@SWCNT enables more insights into the design and versatility of COF as an electrode.

Abstract
All-organic proton batteries are attracting extensive attention due to their sustainability merits and excellent rate capability. Generally, strong acids (e.g. H2 SO4 ) have to be employed as the electrolytes to provide H+ for all-organic proton batteries due to the high H+ intercalation energy barrier. Until now, the design of all-organic proton batteries in mild electrolytes is still a challenge. Herein, a poly(2,9-dihydroquinoxalino[2,3-b]phenazine) (PO) molecule was designed and synthesized, where the adjacent C=N groups show two different chemical environments, resulting in two-step redox reactions. Moreover, the two reactions possess considerable voltage difference because of the large LUMO energy gap between PO and its reduction product. More impressively, the C=N groups endow the π-conjugated PO molecule with H+ uptake/removal in the ZnSO4 electrolyte. As a result, a symmetric all-organic proton battery is achieved in a mild electrolyte for the first time, which exhibits enhanced electrochemical performance and also broadens the chemistry of proton-based batteries.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) consisting of organic radicals are of great interest because they have exhibited unique and intriguing optical, electronic, magnetic, and chemo-catalytic properties, and thus have demonstrated great potential applications in optical, electronic, and magnetic devices, and as catalysts. However, the preparation of MOFs bearing stable organic radicals is very challenging because most organic radicals are highly reactive and difficult to incorporate into the framework of MOFs. Herein we reported a post-synthetic modification strategy to prepare a novel MOF containing phenazine radical cations, which was used as heterogeneous catalyst for aza-Diels-Alder reaction. The zinc-based metal-organic framework Zn2 (PHZ)2 (dabco) (N) was successfully synthesized from 5,10-di(4-benzoic acid)-5,10-dihydrophenazine (PHZ), triethylene diamine (dabco) with Zn(NO3 )2 ⋅ 6H2 O by solvothermal method. The as-synthesized MOF N was partially oxidized by AgSbF6 to form MOF R containing ∼10% phenazine radical cation species. The resultant MOF R was found to keep the original crystal type of N and very persistent under ambient conditions. Consequently, MOF R was successfully employed in radical cation-catalyzed aza-Diels-Alder reactions with various imine substrates at room temperature with high reaction conversion. Moreover, heterogeneous catalyst MOF R was reusable up to five times without much loss of catalytic activity, demonstrating its excellent stability and recyclability. Therefore, the post-synthetic modification developed in this work is expected to become a versatile strategy to prepare radical-based MOFs for the application of heterogeneous catalysts in organic synthesis.

Abstract
Renewable organic cathodes with abundant elements show promise for sustainable rechargeable batteries. Herein, for the first time, utilizing C60 fullerene as organic cathode for room-temperature lithium-ion battery is reported. The C60 cathode shows robust electrochemical performance preferably in ether-based electrolyte. It delivers discharge capacity up to 120 mAh g-1 and specific energy exceeding 200 Wh kg-1 with high initial Coulombic efficiency of 91%. The as-fabricated battery holds a capacity of 90 mAh g-1 after 50 cycles and showcases remarkable rate performance with 77 mAh g-1 retained at 500 mA g-1 . Noteworthily, three couples of unusual flat voltage plateaus recur at ≈2.4, 1.7, and 1.5 V, respectively. Diffusion-dominated three-electron-redox reactions are revealed by cyclic voltammogram and plateau capacities. Intriguingly, it is for the first time unveiled by in situ X-ray diffraction (XRD) that the C60 cathode underwent three reversible phase transitions during lithiation/delithiation process, except for the initial discharge when irreversible polymerization in between C60 nanoclusters existed as suggested by the characteristic irreversible peak shifts in both in situ XRD pattern and in situ Raman spectra. Cs-corrected transmission electron microscope corroborated these phase evolutions. Importantly, delithiation potentials derived from density-functional-theory simulation based on proposed phase structures qualitatively consists with experimental ones.

Abstract
New generation energy storage devices call for electrodes with high capacity, high cycling performance and environmental benignity. Polymer electrode materials (PEMs) are attractive for their abundant structural diversity and tunability as well as engineered conductivity, desirable processability and electrochemical properties for aqueous batteries. We herein overview the state-of-the-art development of PEMs for aqueous batteries, including conventional doped, redox-backbone, redox-pendant and hydrophilic conducting polymers. The merits and demerits of PEMs, and their structural modification and energy storage performance are discussed in detail. To provide a comprehensive understanding of polymer-based aqueous batteries, we correlate the molecular structures of PEMs with their conductivity, morphology and electrochemical behaviors. The review offers an insight into the rational design of conducting polymer electrodes for safe and cost-effective aqueous batteries.

Abstract
Bipolar electroactive organic molecules receive an increasing research attention as electrode materials for rechargeable batteries due to their flexibility, controllability, and environmental friendliness. While its application for symmetric aqueous proton batteries is still in its infancy. Herein, a symmetric aqueous proton battery (APB) based on a bipolar poly(aminoanthraquinone) (PNAQ) is developed. The conductivity and solubility of PNAQ are significantly improved by introducing a polyaniline-like skeleton. It is demonstrated that the quinone-based moieties allow H+ reversible uptake/removal and the benzene ring-based units achieve HSO4 - adsorption/desorption. The fabricated symmetric APB exhibits a high discharge capacity of 85.3 mA h g-1 at 5 C and excellent rate performance (77 mA h g-1 at 100 C). The good rate performance benefits from capacitance-like ions diffusion mechanism. Furthermore, surprisingly, the system can also operate at -70 °C and shows superior electrochemical performance (60.4 mA h g-1 at -70 °C).

Abstract
Electrochemical capacitors charge and discharge more rapidly than batteries over longer cycles, but their practical applications remain limited due to their significantly lower energy densities. Pseudocapacitors and hybrid capacitors have been developed to extend Ragone plots to higher energy density values, but they are also limited by the insufficient breadth of options for electrode materials, which require materials that store alkali metal cations such as Li+ and Na+. Herein, we report a comprehensive and systematic review of emerging anion storage materials for performance- and functionality-oriented applications in electrochemical and battery-capacitor hybrid devices. The operating principles and types of dual-ion and whole-anion storage in electrochemical and hybrid capacitors are addressed along with the classification, thermodynamic and kinetic aspects, and associated interfaces of anion storage materials in various aqueous and non-aqueous electrolytes. The charge storage mechanism, structure-property correlation, and electrochemical features of anion storage materials are comprehensively discussed. The recent progress in emerging anion storage materials is also discussed, focusing on high-performance applications, such as dual-ion- and whole-anion-storing electrochemical capacitors in a symmetric or hybrid manner, and functional applications including micro- and flexible capacitors, desalination, and salinity cells. Finally, we present our perspective on the current impediments and future directions in this field.

Abstract
A base-promoted unprecedented strategy for the regioselective and chemoselective divergent synthesis of highly functionalized aposafranones and their N-oxides has been developed from the [3 + 3] annulation of enaminones with o-fluoronitrobenzenenes. This novel synthetic strategy offers an alternative method for the construction of aposafranones and their N-oxides are meaningful in the fields of both biology and organic synthesis. The established protocol explores the annulation scope of enaminones, and it expands the application of nitro-based cyclization.

Electrochemical Characterization of Aromatic Molecules with 1,4-Diaza Groups for Flow Battery Applications. Molecules 2021; 26:molecules26082227.

Abstract
The aqueous redox flow battery is a promising technology for large-scale low cost energy storage. The rich possibilities for the tailoring of organic molecules and the possibility to discover active materials of lower cost and decreased environmental impact continue to drive research and development of organic compounds suitable for redox flow battery applications. In this work, we focus on the characterization of aromatic molecules with 1,4-diaza groups for flow battery applications. We examine the influence of electron-withdrawing and electron-donating substituents and the effect of the relative position of the substituent(s) on the molecule. We found that electron-withdrawing substituents increased the potential, while electron-donating decreased it, in agreement with expectations. The number of carboxy-groups on the pyrazinic ring was found to have a strong impact on the heterogeneous electron transfer kinetics, with the slowest kinetics observed for pyrazine-2,3,5,6-tetracarboxylic acid. The stability of quinoxaline was investigated by cyclic voltammetry and in a flow cell configuration. Substitution at the 2,3-positions in quinoxaline was found to decrease the capacity fade rate significantly. Furthermore, we demonstrated how molecular aggregation reduces the effective number of electrons involved in the redox process for quinoxalines. This translates to a significant reduction of the achievable volumetric capacity at higher concentrations, yielding values significantly lower than the theoretical capacity. Finally, we demonstrate that such capacity-limiting molecular aggregation may be reduced by introducing flexible side chains with bulky charged groups in order to increase electrostatic repulsion and steric hindrance.

Abstract
Understanding the properties that govern the kinetics of charge storage will enable informed design strategies and improve the rate performance of future battery materials. Herein, we study the effects of structural ordering in organic electrode materials on their charge storage mechanisms. A redox active unit, N,N'-diphenyl-phenazine, was incorporated into three materials which exhibited varying degrees of ordering. From cyclic voltammetry analysis, the crystalline small molecule exhibited diffusion-limited behavior, likely arising from structural rearrangements that occur during charge/discharge. Conversely, a branched polymer network displayed surface-controlled kinetics, attributed to the amorphous structure which enabled fast ionic transport throughout charge/discharge, unimpeded by sluggish structural rearrangements. These results suggest a method for designing new materials for battery electrodes with battery-like energy densities and pseudocapacitor-like rate capabilities.

Abstract
The sustainable future of modern society relies on the development of advanced energy systems. Alkali metals, such as Li, Na, and K, are promising to construct high-energy-density batteries to complement the fast-growing implementation of renewable sources. The stripping/deposition of alkali metals is compromised by serious dendrite growth, which can be intrinsically eliminated by using molten alkali metal anodes. Up to now, most of the conventional molten alkali metal-based batteries need to be operated at high temperatures. To decrease the operating temperature, we extended the battery chemistry to multielement alloys, which provide more flexibility for wide selection and rational screening of cost-effective and fusible metallic electrodes. On the basis of an integrated experimental and theoretical study, the depressed melting point and enhanced interfacial compatibility are elucidated. The proof-of-concept molten sodium battery enabled by the Bi-Pb-Sn fusible alloy not only circumvents the use of costly Ga and In elements but also delivers attractive performance at 100 °C, holding great promise for grid-scale energy storage.

Abstract
Here, we outline some basic pitfalls in the electrochemical investigation of aqueous metal complexes and advocate for the use of bulk electrolysis in redox flow cells for electrolyte analysis. We demonstrate the methods of operation and performance of a lab scale redox flow battery (RFB), which is assembled from unmodified, commercially available material and cycled with a vanadium electrolyte in order to provide a comparative baseline of expected performance. Common misconceptions about the thermodynamic window for water splitting are addressed and further express the need to develop next-generation aqueous redox flow battery electrolytes. Although non-aqueous electrolytes are a popular approach, they suffer from distinct challenges that limit energy and power density in comparison with aqueous electrolytes. Expanding the scope of aqueous electrolytes to include metal-chelate complexes allows electrolytes to be as tailorable as organic species, while maintaining robust metal-based redox processes. A flow battery assembly and operation guide is provided to help facilitate the use of flow battery testing in the evaluation of next-generation electrolytes.

Abstract
With a long cycle life, high rate capability, and facile cell fabrication, liquid metal batteries are regarded as a promising energy storage technology to achieve better utilization of intermittent renewable energy sources. Nevertheless, conventional liquid metal batteries need to be operated at relatively high temperatures (>240 °C) to maintain molten-state electrodes and high conductivity of electrolytes. Intermediate and room-temperature liquid metal batteries, circumventing complex thermal management as well as issues related to sealing and corrosion, are emerging as a novel energy system for widespread implementation. In this Outlook, we elaborate the appealing features of fusible alloys-based liquid metals for energy storage devices and describe the metallurgical fundamentals, cost, and safety analysis of fusible alloys. Recent advances are discussed covering the rational screening of metallic alloys, interfacial engineering on the electrodes, and design of advanced electrolytes. In the end, we provide perspectives on current challenges and future opportunities in this field. This outlook not only aims to provide a design principle for high performance liquid metal batteries, but also inspires further development of novel energy systems beyond conventional solid-state batteries and high-temperature batteries.
