  4. Multi-component materials are a new trend in catalyst development for electrochemical CO 2 reduction. Understanding and managing the chemical interactions within a complex catalyst structure may unlock new or improved reactivity, but is scientifically challenging. We report the first example of capping ligand-dependent metal–oxide interactions in Au/SnO 2 structures for electrocatalytic CO 2 reduction. Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide capping on the Au nanoparticles enables bifunctional CO 2 reduction where CO is produced at more positive potentials and HCOO − at more negative potentials. With citrate capping or no capping, the Au–SnO 2 interactions steer the selectivity toward H 2 evolution at all potentials. Using electrochemical CO oxidation as a probe reaction, we further confirm that the metal–oxide interactions are strongly influenced by the capping ligand.

    Here, we report the quantitative electroreduction of CO 2 to CO by a PNP-pincer iridium( i ) complex bearing amino linkers in DMF/water. The electrocatalytic properties greatly depend on the choice of linker within the ligand. The complex 3-N is far superior to the analogues with methylene and oxygen linkers, showing higher activity and better selectivity for CO 2 over proton reduction.
