The development of practical Mg based batteries is limited by the lack of a library of suitable electrolytes. Recently a 12-vertex closo-carborane anion based electrolyte has been shown to be the first electrolyte for Mg based batteries, which is both non-corrosive and has high electrochemical stability (+3.5 V vs. Mg 0/2+ ). Herein we show that smaller 10-vertex closo-carborane anions also enable electrolytes for Mg batteries. Reduction of the trimethylammonium cation of [HNMe 3  1+ ][HCB 9 H 9  1- ] with elemental Mg yields the novel magnesium electrolyte [Mg 2+ ][HCB 9 H 9  1- ] 2 . The electrolyte displays excellent electrochemical stability, is non-nucleophilic, reversibly deposits and strips Mg, and is halide free. This discovery paves the way for the development of libraries of Mg electrolytes based on more cost effective 10-vertex closo-carborane anions.
