Journal Article
Energy-efficient CO2/CO interconversion by homogeneous copper-based molecular catalysts
2023
Overview
Facile conversion of CO
2
to commercially viable carbon feedstocks offer a unique way to adopt a net-zero carbon scenario. Synthetic CO
2
-reducing catalysts have rarely exhibited energy-efficient and selective CO
2
conversion. Here, the carbon monoxide dehydrogenase (CODH) enzyme blueprint is imitated by a molecular copper complex coordinated by redox-active ligands. This strategy has unveiled one of the rarest examples of synthetic molecular complex-driven
reversible CO
2
reduction/CO oxidation catalysis
under regulated conditions, a hallmark of natural enzymes. The inclusion of a proton-exchanging amine groups in the periphery of the copper complex provides the leeway to modulate the biases of catalysts toward CO
2
reduction and CO oxidation in organic and aqueous media. The detailed spectroelectrochemical analysis confirms the synchronous participation of copper and redox-active ligands along with the peripheral amines during this energy-efficient
CO
2
reduction/CO oxidation
. This finding can be vital in abating the carbon footprint-free in multiple industrial processes.
An efficient CO
2
-to-CO conversion can provide a perfect leeway for transforming waste CO
2
into industrially viable CO. Here, the authors report a bio-inspired copper based synthetic catalyst that can convert CO
2
to CO with minimal energy penalty in both organic and aqueous media.
