Experimentally Validated Cobalt Phosphinothiolate Hydride Intermediate Governs the Selectivity Switch between Formate and Syngas in CO2 Reduction
Controlling product selectivity in homogeneous electrocatalytic CO2 reduction remains a significant challenge, often requiring complicated catalyst redesigning. Herein, we identify and validate a cobalt-hydride intermediate that governs the selectivity switch for CO2 reduction to either formate or synthesis gas (syng...
