A novel design of electroactive components of rechargeable organic batteries based on stable verdazyl radicals bearing various substituents is proposed. 3-Positioned aromatic substituents at the verdazyl moiety affect the reduction potentials and almost do not affect the oxidation potential, while 1-positioned aromatic substituents affect contrariwise the oxidation potential of this radical without any influence on the reduction potential. The acquired electrochemical data allowed us to reveal the structure—potential relationship for the cathodic and anodic processes, which provided the design of triarylverdazyl radicals possessing record-breaking parameters of the “electrochemical gap”.
