The electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction (ECR) to profoundly diminished chemical entities offers a compelling avenue for transforming sporadic energy resources into enduring fuels while forging an enclosed anthropogenic carbon cycle. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has been extensively investigated as a promising multifunctional material for ECR. Notably, two-dimensional (2D) MOFs attract particular research attention due to their specific chemical and structural properties, i.e., enhanced electrical conductivity, increased open sites, improved mass transport and tunable interfacial environments. In this review, the recent progress of 2D MOFs for ECR is summarized. We begin with the introduction of the synthetic strategies of 2D MOFs. Then, we mainly focus on the advanced 2D MOF electrocatalysts for ECR in recent years, which are clarified by the products. The mechanism underlying the conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) into carbon products, the factors influencing product formation and a summary of selected 2D MOF catalysts and their synthetic methods are presented. By consolidating the potential factors contributing to the products, we anticipate that the review will offer fresh opportunities for further advancements in CO2 reduction with 2D MOF catalysts.
