The calculated (Cal) and experimentally (Exp) measured reduction potentials vs. Li+/Li(s) of Li+ coordinated solvents, in Volt. The parentheses with a minor sign denote the reduced molecule.

Reduction reaction Potential (V vs. Li+/Li)
Cal Exp
Li+-EMC + e− → Li+-(EMC)− 0.45 0.45 (ref. 61)
Li+-EC + e− → Li+-(EC)− 0.62 0.75 (ref. 76)
Li+-(EC)3(EMC)3 + e− → Li+-(EC)−(EC)2(EMC)3 0.64
Li+-FEC + e− → Li+-(FEC)− 0.97 1.1 (ref. 77)
Li+-(EC)2(EMC)3(FEC) + e− → Li+-(EC)2(EMC)3(FEC)− 0.99
