Abstract
The benchmark magnesium electrolyte, [Mg2Cl3]+ [AlPh4]−, can be prepared in a 100% atom-economic fashion by a ligand exchange reaction between AlCl3 and two molar equivalents of MgPh2. NMR and vibrational spectroscopy indicate that the reported approach results in a simpler ionic composition than the more widely adopted synthesis route of combining PhMgCl with AlCl3. Electrochemical performance has been validated by polarisation tests and cyclic voltammetry, which demonstrate excellent stability of electrolytes produced via this atom-efficient approach.
