As one of the most important applications of the element, Li batteries afford emerging opportunities for the exploration of Li bond chemistry. In this talk, the historical development and concept of the Li bond are reviewed, in addition to the application of Li bonds in lithium-sulfur batteries. The Li bond was described in the context of Li batteries, including discussions of sulfur cathodes, liquid electrolytes, and Li metal anodes. Such discourse on the chemistry of the Li bond can provide fruitful insight into the fundamental interactions within lithium-sulfur batteries and thus deliver a deeper understanding of their working mechanism.
