(E)-3-Chloro-1-phenylsulfonylprop-1-ene and its iodo- and bromo-analogues, (Z)-1-iodo-3-phenylsulfonylprop-1-ene and (Z)-1-bromo-3-phenylsulfonylprop-1-ene, have each been successfully converted into lithiated carbanions which react regioselectively with aromatic aldehydes to give gamma-alkylated products whose nature depends upon the halogen substituent: the chloro-sulfones yield (2Z)-1-aryl-2-chloro-4-phenylsulfonylbut-2-en-1-ols but the bromo- and iodo-derivatives behave differently, yielding (1E)-trans-4-aryl-3,4-epoxy-1-phenylsulfonylbut-1-enes. In sharp contrast, the same lithiated sulfones react with aliphatic aldehydes to give anti-configured beta-hydroxysulfones which are formed via diastereoselective alpha-alkylation reactions.

Silicon is widely recognized as a promising anode material for all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) due to exceptional specific capacity, abundant availability, and environmental sustainability. However, the considerable volume expansion and particle fragmentation of Si during cycling lead to significant performance degradation, limiting its practical application. Herein, the development of a pre-lithiated Si-based composite anode (c-LiSi) is presented, designed to address the key challenges faced by Si-based anodes, namely severe volume changes and low electrochemical stability.

Herein, we report the synthesis of two-dimensional TaSeC (2D-TaSeC) nanosheets using electrochemical lithiation in multilayer TaSeC followed by sonication in deionized water. Multilayer TaSeC was obtained via solid-state synthesis of FeTaSeC followed by chemical etching of Fe. 2D-TaSeC exhibited promising electrocatalytic activity for the hydrogen evolution reaction from water compared to multilayer TaSeC and 2D-TaSe.

During the initial cycling of lithium-ion batteries, the generation of SEI at the electrode-electrolyte interface and the occurrence of irreversible side reactions consume the active lithium, resulting in irreversible loss of volume (ICL), which may also be accompanied by electrode volume changes and structural collapse. Addressing these challenges has become critical, and pre-lithiation with additional lithium has emerged as a key way to improve battery performance. Hence, this review comprehensively analyzes and summarizes the causes of ICL in lithium-ion batteries, and systematically discusses various prelithiation methods and mechanisms of different electrode structures, especially electrodes.

Whenever the cycling of Li-ion batteries is stopped, the electrode materials undergo a relaxation process, but the structural changes that occur during relaxation are not well-understood. We have used operando synchrotron X-ray diffraction with a time resolution of 1.24 s to observe the structural changes that occur when the lithiation of graphite and LiFePO electrodes are interrupted.

Pushing the limit of the charging cut-off voltage inevitably leads to the instability of bulk and interfacial structures. Herein, one-step dual-modified LiCoO (LCO) is achieved by thermodynamic decomposition of lithiuim salts on the surface, featuring F-doped bulk and LiF & LiBO coating layers. Notably, such artificial near-surface reconfiguration effectively suppresses Co dissolution, structural deconstruction and electrolyte side reactions during repeated lithiation/delithiation processes.
