Nickel(II)-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane is examined as a possible single redox couple for nonaqueous flow batteries. The nickel complex cation is reduced at -1.81 V (vs. Fc/Fc(+)) and oxidized at 0.74 V, showing that this tetradentate Ni(II) complex cation can be used as a single redox couple that offers a cell voltage of 2.55 V. The maximum solubility is 0.4 M in 1.0 M tetraethylammonium tetrafluoroborate dissolved in a mixed solvent of ethylene carbonate and propylene carbonate. When tested in a non-flowing cell, this single redox couple exhibits a very stable cycle performance. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
