In this work, we synthesized ultrathin Rh nanosheets (Rh-NSs) with atomic thickness, which revealed excellent activity for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and super activity and extraordinary selectivity for the isopropanol oxidation reaction (IOR) in alkaline medium. When using Rh-NSs as a bifunctional electrocatalyst for water electrolysis in the presence of isopropanol, a voltage of only 0.4 V was required for H-2 production, accompanied by the production of valuable acetone at the anode.
