Abstract

The Co‐based electrocatalyst is among the most promising candidates for electrochemical oxidation of 5‐hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF). However, the intrinsic active sites and detailed mechanism of this catalyst remains unclear. We combine experimental evidence and a theoretical study to show that electrogenerated Co 3+ and Co 4+ species act as chemical oxidants but with distinct roles in selective HMF oxidation. It is found that Co 3+ is only capable of oxidizing formyl group to produce carboxylate while Co 4+ is required for the initial oxidation of hydroxyl group with significantly faster kinetics. As a result, the product distribution shows explicit dependence on the Co oxidation states and selective production of 5‐hydroxymethyl‐2‐furancarboxylic acid (HMFCA) and 2,5‐furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) are achieved by tuning the applied potential. This work offers essential mechanistic insight on Co‐catalyzed organic oxidation reactions and might guide the design of more efficient electrocatalysts.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
