This study introduces an efficient CO2RR electrocatalyst with NHC-coordinated Cu SAS embedded in MOF, which exhibits high CH4 FE and TOF, attributed to the σ donation of NHC and the porosity of the catalyst.
The exploitation of highly efficient carbon dioxide reduction (CO2RR) electrocatalyst for methane (CH4) electrosynthesis has attracted great attention for the intermittent renewable electricity storage but remains challenging. Here, N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-ligated copper single atom site (Cu SAS) embedded in metal-organic framework is reported (2Bn-Cu@UiO-67), which can achieve an outstanding Faradaic efficiency (FE) of 81 % for the CO2 reduction to CH4 at -1.5 V vs. RHE with a current density of 420 mA cm(-2). The CH4 FE of our catalyst remains above 70 % within a wide potential range and achieves an unprecedented turnover frequency (TOF) of 16.3 s(-1). The sigma donation of NHC enriches the surface electron density of Cu SAS and promotes the preferential adsorption of CHO* intermediates. The porosity of the catalyst facilitates the diffusion of CO2 to 2Bn-Cu, significantly increasing the availability of each catalytic center.
