<p>Simple ionic liquids exhibit unique physical and chemical<br />properties that make them very useful for deployment in electrochemical<br />devices such as solvent-free electrolytes in capacitors and batteries.<br />However, incorporating redox functionality into ionic liquid<br />structures opens up in situ faradaic electrochemistry which allows access<br />to a large array of new electrochemical applications reliant upon<br />heterogeneous or homogenous electron-transfer processes. This paper<br />presents and discusses the opportunities and challenges for these types<br />of electro-materials across a myriad of applications by considering<br />exemplar quinone-functionalised ionic liquids.</p>
