Article Synopsis
  • Bicarbonate-based electrolytes improve catalytic performance in aqueous electrochemical CO reduction, but their role in organic systems has been less studied.
  • Researchers found that bicarbonate can act as a proton donor in organic electrolytes like dimethyl sulfoxide, enhancing the electrochemical CO reduction process.
  • By using urea pendants to position bicarbonate near an iron porphyrin catalyst, they achieved a significant increase in catalytic rates (1500 times), highlighting the potential of bicarbonate in optimizing CO reduction catalysis.
