Progress partially depends on exploring the basic electrochemistry of O2 reduction. Here we describe the effect of complexing-cations on the electrochemical reduction of O2 in DMSO in the presence and absence of a Li salt. The solubility of alkaline peroxides in DMSO is enhanced by the complexing-cations, consistent with their strong interaction with reduced O2. The complexing-cations also increase the rate of the 1-electron O2 reduction to O2•– by up to six-fold (k° = 2.4 ×10–3 to 1.5 × 10–2 cm s–1) whether or not Li+ ions are present. In the absence of Li+, the complexing-cations also promote the reduction of O2•– to O22–. In the presence of Li+ and complexing-cations, and despite the interaction of the reduced O2 with the latter, SERS confirms that the product is still Li2O2."}],"oa_version":"None","_id":"7301","doi":"10.1021/jp4093805","author":[{"first_name":"Chunmei","full_name":"Li, Chunmei","last_name":"Li"},{"first_name":"Olivier","full_name":"Fontaine, Olivier","last_name":"Fontaine"},{"id":"A8CA28E6-CE23-11E9-AD2D-EC27E6697425","last_name":"Freunberger","orcid":"0000-0003-2902-5319","full_name":"Freunberger, Stefan Alexander","first_name":"Stefan Alexander"},{"last_name":"Johnson","first_name":"Lee","full_name":"Johnson, Lee"},{"full_name":"Grugeon, Sylvie","first_name":"Sylvie","last_name":"Grugeon"},{"last_name":"Laruelle","first_name":"Stéphane","full_name":"Laruelle, Stéphane"},{"last_name":"Bruce","full_name":"Bruce, Peter G.","first_name":"Peter G."},{"full_name":"Armand, Michel","first_name":"Michel","last_name":"Armand"}],"quality_controlled":"1","title":"Aprotic Li–O2 battery: Influence of complexing agents on oxygen reduction in an aprotic solvent","citation":{"ama":"Li C, Fontaine O, Freunberger SA, et al.
