Abstract: A molecular design principle utilizes a steric hindrance effect to tune the solvation structures of Li+ ions. By substituting the methoxy groups on DME with larger-sized ethoxy groups, the resulting 1,2-diethoxyethane (DEE) has weaker solvation ability and consequently more anion-rich inner solvation shells, both of which enhance interfacial stability at cathode and anode. According to certain additional aspects, the present embodiments relate to a family of fluorinated-1,2-diethyoxyethane (fluorinated-DEE) molecules that are readily synthesized in large scales to use as the electrolyte solvents. Selected positions on 1,2-diethyoxyethane (DEE, distinct from the diethyl ether are functionalized with various numbers of fluorine atoms through iterative tuning, to reach a balance between CE, oxidative stability, and ionic conduction. Paired with 1.2 M lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiFSI), these fluorinated-DEE-based, single-salt single-solvent electrolytes are thoroughly characterized.
