New paper in Angewandte Chemie International Edition on high-density tin single-site catalysts for CO2 reduction

Our latest study, published in Angewandte Chemie International Edition, reports a new strategy to overcome the active-site density limitation of tin single-site catalysts for electrochemical CO2 reduction.

By controlling the local coordination environment of tin within a nitrogen-doped carbon framework, we achieved a high loading of atomically dispersed tin sites while maintaining their single-site nature. The resulting catalysts enable highly selective conversion of CO2 to formate across a broad range of current densities.

Operando spectroscopic and structural investigations provide insights into the stability and catalytic behavior of the tin single sites under electrochemical operating conditions.

Congratulations to Soressa Abera Chala, who led the study, and to all collaborators who contributed to this work.
