Abstract
Anionic redox chemistry enables extraordinary capacity for Li- and Mn-rich layered oxides (LMROs) cathodes. Unfortunately, irreversible surface oxygen evolution evokes the pernicious phase transition, structural deterioration, and severe electrode-electrolyte interface side reaction with element dissolution, resulting in fast capacity and voltage fading of LMROs during cycling and hindering its commercialization. Herein, a redox couple strategy is proposed by utilizing copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) to address the irreversibility of anionic redox. The Cu-N synergistic effect of CuPc could not only inhibit surface oxygen evolution by reducing the peroxide ion O2 2- back to lattice oxygen O2-, but also enhance the reaction activity and reversibility of anionic redox in bulk to achieve a higher capacity and cycling stability. Moreover, the CuPc strategy suppresses the interface side reaction and induces the forming of a uniform and robust LiF-rich cathode electrolyte, interphase (CEI) to significantly eliminate transition metal dissolution. As a result, the CuPc-enhanced LMRO cathode shows superb cycling performance with a capacity retention of 95.0% after 500 long-term cycles. This study sheds light on the great effect of N-based redox couple to regulate anionic redox behavior and promote the development of high energy density and high stability LMROs cathode.

Abstract
Organic electrode materials (OEMs) have shown enormous potential in ion batteries because of their varied structural components and adaptable construction. As a brand-new energy-storage device, rechargeable aluminum-ion batteries (RAIBs) have also received a lot of attention due to their high safety and low cost. OEMs are expected to stand out among many traditional RAIB cathode materials. However, how to improve the electrochemical performance of OEMs in RAIBs on a laboratory scale is still challenging. This work reviews and discusses the uses of conductive polymers, carbonyl compounds, imine polymers, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, organic frameworks, and other organic materials as the cathodes of RAIBs, as well as energy-storage mechanisms and research progress. It is hoped that this Review can provide the design guidelines for organic cathode materials with high capacity and great stability used in aluminum-organic batteries and develop more efficient organic energy storage cathodes.

Abstract
The rising energy crisis and environmental concerns caused by fossil fuels have accelerated the deployment of renewable and sustainable energy sources and storage systems. As a result of immense progress in the field, cost-effective, high-performance, and long-life rechargeable batteries are imperative to meet the current and future demands for sustainable energy sources. Currently, lithium-ion batteries are widely used, but limited lithium (Li) resources have caused price spikes, threatening progress toward cleaner energy sources. Therefore, post-Li, batteries that utilize highly abundant materials leading to cost-effective energy storage solutions while offering desirable performance characteristics are urgently needed. Aluminum-ion battery (AIB) is an attractive concept that uses highly abundant aluminum while offering a high theoretical gravimetric and volumetric capacity of 2980 mAh g-1 and 8046 mAh cm-3 , respectively. As a result, intensified efforts have been made in recent years to utilize numerous electrolytes, anodes, and cathode materials to improve the electrochemical performance of AIBs, and potentially create high-performance, low-cost, and safe energy storage devices. Herein, recent progress in the electrolyte, anode, and cathode active materials and their utilization in AIBs and their related characteristics are summarized. Finally, the main challenges facing AIBs along with future directions are highlighted.

Abstract
μ-Nitrido- and μ-carbido-bridged iron phthalocyanine dimers, when used as cathode-active materials for rechargeable lithium batteries, showed four stable redox waves in cyclic voltammetry studies in solution and a stable discharge capacity of approximately 60 mAh g-1 after 200 cycles. These results indicate that μ-heteroatom-bridged iron phthalocyanine dimers are good platforms for designing novel phthalocyanine-based electrode-active materials.

Abstract
Due to the drawbacks in commercially known lithium-ion batteries (LIB) such as safety, availability, and cost issues, aluminum batteries are being hotly pursued in the research field of energy storage. Al being abundant, stable, and possessing high volumetric capacity has been found to be attractive among the next generation secondary batteries. Various unwanted side reactions in the case of aqueous electrolytes have shifted the attention toward nonaqueous electrolytes for Al batteries. Unlike LIBs, Al batteries are based on intercalation/deintercalation of ions on the cathode side and deposition/stripping of Al on the anodic side during the charge/discharge cycle of the battery. Hence, to provide a clear understanding of the recent developments in Al batteries, we have presented an overview concentrating on the choice of suitable cathodes and electrolytes involving aluminum chloride derived ions (AlCl4 -, AlCl2 +, AlCl2+, etc.). We elaborate the importance of innovation in terms of structure and morphology to improve the cathode materials as well as the necessary properties to look for in a suitable nonaqueous electrolyte. The significance of computational modeling is also discussed. The future perspectives are discussed which can improve the performance and reduce the manufacturing cost simultaneously to conceive Al batteries for a wide range of applications.

Abstract
Graphite is a widely available natural form of carbon with peculiar chemical and surface properties. It is essentially hydrophobic and consists in very stable stacks of graphene layers held together by highly delocalized π-π interactions. Its use in chemistry and in particular for catalytic applications requires modification of its structure to increase its surface area. This is commonly achieved by harsh oxidation methods which also modifies the chemical composition of graphite and enables subsequent deposition of catalytic phases via common impregnation/reduction methods. Here we show that copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) can be incorporated into unmodified bulk graphite by the straight-forward sonication of a dimethylformamide solution containing CuPc and graphite flakes. Immobilization of the CuPc complex in the graphitic matrix is shown to rely on π-π interactions between the Pc ligand and graphenic surfaces. This strong CuPc-graphene interaction facilitates oxidation of the graphitic matrix upon oxidation of the immobilized complex, as shown by thermogravimetric analysis in air. Nevertheless, a soft oxidation treatment can be designed to produce CuO nanoparticles (NPs) without degrading the dispersing graphitic matrix. These well-dispersed CuO NPs are shown (1) to decrease the degree of stacking of graphite in the solid-state by intercalation in-between graphitic stacks, (2) to be more easily reducible than bulk CuO, and (3) to be catalytically active for the oxidation of carbon monoxide. The higher mass-specific CO oxidation rates observed, as compared with CuO/alumina benchmarks, highlight the beneficial role of the carbon support and the relevance of this new strategy toward the design of copper oxide catalysts from copper phthalocyanine metal complexes.
