Cobalt phthalocyanine coordinated to pyridine-functionalized carbon nanotubes with enhanced CO2 electroreduction

Abstract

Abstract Electrochemical reduction of CO2 is promising to utilize the intermittent renewable electricity and transform CO2 into value-added products, simultaneously. Herein, we designed a cobalt phthalocyanine-based catalyst supported on pyridine-functionalized carbon nanotubes (CoPc-py-CNT). This novel hybrid catalyst exhibited a high activity (TOFCO: 34.5 s−1 at −0.63 V vs. RHE) and selectivity (FECO > 98%) for electrochemical CO2 reduction. To the best of our knowledge, it is the best one among all reported molecular based electrocatalysts for CO2-to-CO conversion. Furthermore, structure characterizations (such as Raman and X-rays photoelectron spectroscopy), loading-dependent electrochemical analysis and mechanistic studies revealed that pyridine groups, through axial coordination with Co, not only functioned as physical promoters to improve the dispersion of cobalt phthalocyanine but also tuned the electronic structure of Co sites to increase the intrinsic turnover frequency.

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.
