--- _id: '8329' abstract: - lang: eng text: We show the synthesis of a redox‐active quinone, 2‐methoxy‐1,4‐hydroquinone (MHQ), from a bio‐based feedstock and its suitability as electrolyte in aqueous redox flow batteries. We identified semiquinone intermediates at insufficiently low pH and quinoid radicals as responsible for decomposition of MHQ under electrochemical conditions. Both can be avoided and/or stabilized, respectively, using H 3 PO 4 electrolyte, allowing for reversible cycling in a redox flow battery for hundreds of cycles. acknowledgement: The Austrian Research Promotion Agency (FFG) is gratefully acknowledged for financial support of the project LignoBatt (860429). article_processing_charge: No article_type: original author: - first_name: Werner full_name: Schlemmer, Werner last_name: Schlemmer - first_name: Philipp full_name: Nothdurft, Philipp last_name: Nothdurft - first_name: Alina full_name: Petzold, Alina last_name: Petzold - first_name: Philipp full_name: Frühwirt, Philipp last_name: Frühwirt - first_name: Max full_name: Schmallegger, Max last_name: Schmallegger - first_name: Georg full_name: Gescheidt-Demner, Georg last_name: Gescheidt-Demner - first_name: Roland full_name: Fischer, Roland last_name: Fischer - first_name: Stefan Alexander full_name: Freunberger, Stefan Alexander id: A8CA28E6-CE23-11E9-AD2D-EC27E6697425 last_name: Freunberger orcid: 0000-0003-2902-5319 - first_name: Wolfgang full_name: Kern, Wolfgang last_name: Kern - first_name: Stefan full_name: Spirk, Stefan last_name: Spirk citation: ama: Schlemmer W, Nothdurft P, Petzold A, et al. 2‐methoxyhydroquinone from vanillin for aqueous redox‐flow batteries.
