Adaptive Supramolecular Interactions Govern Redox‐Active Molecules in Aqueous Redox Flow Batteries
Adaptive supramolecular interactions overcome the solubility‐stability trade‐off in aqueous redox flow batteries. Hydrophobic anions disrupt intrinsic π–π stacking to enable high solubility, while redox‐state‐dependent spin pairing and cation coordination dynamically stabilize reactive intermediates during operation.
