A tandem electrocatalysis and hydroformylation approach to synthesize high-carbon aldehydes from CO <sub>2</sub>

The electrochemical CO<sub>2</sub> reduction reaction (eCO<sub>2</sub>RR) typically yields low-carbon products (C<sub><i>n</i></sub>, <i>n</i> ≤ 3), thereby limiting its application scope. Herein, we design a cascaded eCO<sub>2</sub>RR-hydroformylation system for synthesizing high-carbon (C<sub>9</sub>) aldehydes from CO<sub>2</sub>. Ni<sub><i>x</i></sub>Co<sub>1-<i>x</i></sub>@NCNT catalysts enable the production of syngas with a tunable H<sub>2</sub>/CO ratio ranging from 0 to 5.3 using CO<sub>2</sub> and H<sub>2</sub>O as feedstocks. Subsequently, Rh-based complexes are constructed to catalyze the downstream phenylacetylene hydroformylation. As a result, this tandem electrocatalysis-hydroformylation approach achieves a high phenylacetylene conversion efficiency of 87%, with aldehyde selectivity up to 53% under room pressure and temperature.

Abstract

The electrochemical CO<sub>2</sub> reduction reaction (eCO<sub>2</sub>RR) typically yields low-carbon products (C<sub><i>n</i></sub>, <i>n</i> ≤ 3), thereby limiting its application scope. Herein, we design a cascaded eCO<sub>2</sub>RR-hydroformylation system for synthesizing high-carbon (C<sub>9</sub>) aldehydes from CO<sub>2</sub>. Ni<sub><i>x</i></sub>Co<sub>1-<i>x</i></sub>@NCNT catalysts enable the production of syngas with a tunable H<sub>2</sub>/CO ratio ranging from 0 to 5.3 using CO<sub>2</sub> and H<sub>2</sub>O as feedstocks. Subsequently, Rh-based complexes are constructed to catalyze the downstream phenylacetylene hydroformylation. As a result, this tandem electrocatalysis-hydroformylation approach achieves a high phenylacetylene conversion efficiency of 87%, with aldehyde selectivity up to 53% under room pressure and temperature.
