ABSTRACT
Tin-based compounds are promising anode materials for lithium-ion batteries owing to their low charge/discharge voltage and high theoretical capacity but are plagued by both huge volume expansion during cycling and complex synthetic procedures. Constructing a coordination network between Sn and the lithium-active organic matrix can effectively relieve the volume expansion and increase the lithium storage active site utilization. Herein, we report a facile method to prepare two one-dimensional Sn-based coordination polymers [Sn(Hcta)]n (1) and [Sn(Hbtc)]n (2) (H3cta = 1,3,5-cyclohexanetricarboxylic acid, H3btc = 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid) for lithium storage, which differ only in the aromaticity of the ligand. 2 with an aromatic ligand provided a reversible capacity of 833 mAh g-1 at 200 mA g-1 over 160 cycles, higher than that of 1 without an aromatic ligand due to the quick charge transfer. The reversible lithium storage reactions of metal centers and organic ligands and the volume expansion rate of Sn-based coordination polymers during cycling were studied by detailed characterization and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. This research revealed that the structural factor of ligand aromaticity in these Sn-based coordination polymers boosted the utilization of active sites and rapid charge transfer, offering a coordination chemistry strategy for the design and synthesis of advanced anode materials.
