Herein, we propose a method of B element doping combining with methylbenzene molecular intercalation to modify graphdiyne (GDY) as the cathode of Li − S batteries, which strengthens the anchoring to LiPSs. First-principle calculations are performed to explore the adsorption configurations, energies, charge transfers and diffusion coefficients of S<sub>8</sub> and LiPSs. Pure GDY can only adsorbed S<sub>8</sub> and LiPSs weakly, resulting in the LiPSs can freely diffuse and dissolve into the electrolyte and then self-discharge. Then, GDY with B element doping (B@GDY), facilitates the charge exchange between adsorbates and substrate by enabling S gaining extra electrons from B elements, which further enhances the absorption energies. The molecular intercalation to B@GDY (B_Ben@GDY) induce a steric hindrance to restrict the diffusion of S<sub>8</sub> and larger LiPSs, making the anchoring effect significantly enhanced. Last, the comparison between adsorption energies and the binding energy between LiPSs and solvent molecules, further supports the anchoring effects of B@GDY and B_Ben@GDY to LiPSs.

Characterizations indicate that a slight increase in the length of the azaalkyl backbone of the ligand modulates the geometry of the metal center, as evidenced by increasing geometric parameters. This suggests a subtle but predictable trend in the geometry change from near-perfect square pyramidal to trigonal bipyramidal. Electrochemical measurements reveal that the pentacoordinated complex with a geometry closer to trigonal bipyramidal exhibits significantly higher catalytic activity and much lower overpotential for electrochemical water oxidation. Collective experiments and theoretical calculations elucidate that the alkyl chain structure significantly influences the intrinsic redox properties and electrocatalytic water oxidation activity of Cu complexes.
