A polyoxometalate–organic framework with multiple valence polyoxometalate clusters as redox active building units demonstrated as anode material for Li-ion batteries.
New concepts to design innovating and top-performing redox-active organic molecule based electrodes should push forward and promote an eco-friendly alternative to classical Li-ion batteries.
A zinc-based coordination polymer with photochromic 4,4′-bipyridinium derivatives as redox active building units is demonstrated as an anode material for Li-ion batteries.
