摘要
Reported here is the chelate effect as a design principle for tuning heterogeneous catalysts for electrochemical CO2 reduction. Palladium functionalized with a chelating tris-N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligand (Pd-timtmb(Me)) exhibits a 32-fold increase in activity for electrochemical reduction of CO2 to C1 products with high Faradaic efficiency (FEC1=86%) compared to the parent unfunctionalized Pd foil (FE=23%), and with sustained activity relative to a monodentate NHC-ligated Pd electrode (Pd-mimtmb(Me)). The results highlight the contributions of the chelate effect for tailoring and maintaining reactivity at molecular-materials interfaces enabled by surface organometallic chemistry.
