A facile one-pot solvothermal route has been developed to synthesize phase pure MxC2O4 center dot 2H(2)O (M = Mn, Co; 0 < x <= 1) microstructures without employing any hard/soft template and their electrochemical performance in lithium-ion batteries has been systematically investigated. Morphology, microstructure and composition of the synthesized materials are characterized by field emission-scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Anhydrous micron-sized MnC2O4 and CoC2O4 exhibits specific reversible discharge capacity of similar to 800 and 950 mA h g(-1) respectively, at 1 C-rate. MnC2O4 exhibited good cycling stability while CoC2O4 showed severe capacity fading phenomenon after 40 cycles, thereafter attaining 400-600 mA h g(-1) for all C-rates. Interestingly, mixed solid solution having Co0.52Mn0.48C2O4 composition improved the specific reversible discharge capacity to a stable value of similar to 1000 mA h g(-1) (1 C-rate), which is one of the highest reported values for such oxalates. The cycling stability of this mixed metal oxalate is remarkably better than its individual constituents at most C-rates. The Mn2+ substitution into CoC2O4 lattice has led to the synergistic modification of the electrochemical performances, thus making it a promising anode candidate for future LIBs.
