On the Incompatibility of lithium–O₂ Battery Technology with CO₂

When solubilized in a hexacarboxamide cryptand anion receptor, the peroxide dianion reacts rapidly with CO₂ in polar aprotic organic media to produce hydroperoxycarbonate (HOOCO₂- ) and peroxydicarbonate (-O₂ COOCO₂-). Peroxydicarbonate is subject to thermal fragmentation into two equivalents of the...
