Abstract

Copper electrocatalysts can reduce CO 2 to hydrocarbons at high overpotentials. However, a mechanistic understanding of CO 2 reduction on nanostructured Cu catalysts has been lacking. Herein we show that the structurally precise ligand-protected Cu-hydride nanoclusters, such as Cu 32 H 20 L 12 (L is...
