ionikontaktin
Ionikontaktin is a hypothetical molecular mediator proposed to enhance ionic transport at solid–solid and solid–liquid interfaces. In theoretical discussions it is described as a small, symmetrically substituted organo-ionic compound that can transiently bind mobile ions while maintaining overall electronic neutrality across the host material.
Structurally, ionikontaktin is envisaged to have an aromatic core with rigid, multi-dentate chelating groups at both
As of the present, there are no experimental reports confirming the synthesis or direct observation of ionikontaktin.
Potential applications include the design of interfacial layers in solid-state batteries, fuel cells, and electrochemical sensors,
