Significance The intrinsic sluggish kinetics of organodisulfides has hindered its further application in large-scale energy storage. In this work, we propose a unique redox mediator (carbon disulfide [CS2]) involving reversible C-S bond formation/breakage, which accelerates the reaction kinetics of organodisulfides by reducing about one-third of the energy barrier of sulfur–sulfur bond breakage. The strategy described here supplies a perspective for enhancing the electrochemical behavior of organodisulfides and greatly facilitates the development of organodisulfides in large-scale energy storage applications.
