Fused Donor-Donor-Acceptor Triads Composed of Tetrathiafulvalene and Benzoquinone Derivatives as the Positive Electrode Materials for Rechargeable Lithium and Sodium Batteries
Fused donor-donor-acceptor triads composed of tetrathiafulvalenes (TTFs) and benzoquinone (BQ) or naphthoquinone (NQ) were synthesized. The bis(methylsulfanyl)-TTFs-BQ and TTFs-NQ serve as a positive electrode active material for the rechargeable lithium battery with an energy density of over 800 mWh g(-1) . The bis(methylsulfanyl)-TTFs-NQ also functions as an active material for the rechargeable sodium battery.
