Microwave-assisted synthesis of metal-organic chalcogenolate assemblies as electrocatalysts for syngas production

Abstract

Syngas is an industrially highly relevant gaseous mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen, but its production is energy-intense and relies on natural gas precursors and noble-metal catalysts. Here, the authors explore metal-organic chalcogenolate assemblies (MOCHAs) for tuneable syngas production via electrocatalytic CO2 reduction.
