    Dissolved transition metal ions can induce peak shifts in the NMR spectra of degraded battery electrolytes. Here, we exploit this staightforward, accessible method to calculate magnetic moments for dissolved Ni 2+ , Mn 2+ , Co 2+ , and Cu 2+ ; subsequent analysis of dissolution from LiMn 2 O 4 , LiNiO 2 , and LiNi 0.5 Mn 1.5 O 4 shows that the dissolved metals are exclusively divalent. Solution NMR of battery electrolytes reveals the oxidation states of metals dissolved from battery cathodes.
