Organic electrolytes with Li + were analyzed by far-ultraviolet (≤200 nm) spectroscopy, achieved by an attenuated total reflectance setup. The spectra showed a redshift with Li + addition, attributed to the charge transfer, as revealed by quantum chemical calculations. Multivariate analysis successfully decomposed the spectra into pure solvent and Li-coordinated solvent components.
