Summary:A compilation of electrolytes within the standard R PhOMgCl and AlCl 3 in a THF electrolyte system with varying alkyl-based steric bulks about the phenol ring were prepared and cycled electrochemically. Most notably, 2,4,6-trimethylphenol-based solutions exhibited high conductivity (2.56 mS cm −1 ) and compatibility with the Chevrel-phase Mo 6 S 8 intercalation cathode (over 200 h cycle time at C /10 current). A compilation of electrolytes within the standard R PhOMgCl and AlCl 3 in a THF electrolyte system with varying alkyl-based steric bulks about the phenol ring were prepared and cycled electrochemically. For R = 2,4,6-Me 3 , excellent cycling (>200 h cycle life at C /10 current) with Mo 6 S 8 Cheverel is observed.
