Abstract

In this paper, we review different Mn(I)-tricarbonyl catalysts and their catalytic activity in electrochemical CO2 reduction to CO and we look at some of the most representative catalysts from the standpoint of mechanistic investigations. We also discuss how this knowledge has given rise to an improvement of catalytic activity and to changes in process selectivity leading to production of formate as the major CO2 reduction product.

Author Biography

Sergio Fernández, Barcelona Institute of Science and TechnoloBarcelona Institute of Science and Technology (BIST)gy (BIST)

Sergio Fernández ha fet la tesi doctoral a l’Institut Català d’Investigació Química (ICIQ) sota la supervisió dels professors Julio Lloret Fillol (ICIQ, ICREA) i Josep M. Luis (ICIQ, UdG) en l’àmbit de la catàlisi molecular fotoquímica i electroquímica per a la producció d’energia. Es va graduar en química per la UdG l’any 2017. Posteriorment, va cursar el Màster en Catàlisi Avançada i Modelització Molecular a l’Institut de Química Computacional i Catàlisi (IQCC) de la mateixa universitat. En ambdues titulacions va obtenir el premi extraordinari al millor expedient acadèmic. El setembre de 2022 es va incorporar com a investigador postdoctoral al grup del professor Alex Miller a la Universitat de Carolina del Nord a Chapel Hill (EUA).
