Magneto-ionics of molecular based magnets, the ionic control of magnetism, promise ultralow-power sensor technologies, while the extent of reversible ion intercalation in turn is also the key state-of-charge feature in rechargeable battery electrodes. Here we report the reversible ion intercalation in molecular magnetic electrode, which simultaneously monitors the state of charge in battery and enables dynamic switching of its room-temperature magnetic transition. Microwave excited spin wave reveals lithiation degree in molecular-magnetic anode, enabling magneto-ionics towards the real-time monitoring of state of charge in rechargeable battery under a low magnetic field and radiofrequency. The structural vacancy and hydrogen-bonding networks in such molecular magneto-ionic compound enables the reversible lithiation and delithiation, which in turn, leads to a dynamical and reversible magnetization tunability.
