Abstract

A secondary battery that has an electrode active material mainly composed of a low-molecular-weight multi-electron organic compound that has two or more electrons to be involved in a battery electrode reaction, and a solvent for an electrolyte solution that contains a sulfone compound. Apart of the electrode active material is dissolved in and reacted with the electrolyte solution at the first charge and discharge, thereby oligomerizing a part of the electrode active material.
