NITROXIDE CONTAINING ELECTRODE MATERIALS FOR SECONDARY BATTERIES

摘要

This invention relates to a stable secondary battery utilizing as active principle the oxidation and reduction cycle of a sterically hindered nitroxide radical, a sterically hindered oxoammonium cation, a sterically hindered hydroxylamine or a sterically hindered aminoxide anion containing a piperazin-2,6-dione, a piperazin-2-one or morpholin-2-one structural unit. Further aspects of the invention are a method for providing such a secondary battery, the use of the respective compounds as active elements in secondary batteries and selected novel compounds.
