Atomically Precise Metal Clusters for Efficient Catalytic Conversion of Nitrate to High‐Valued Chemicals

Atomically precise metal clusters have demonstrated significant advantages in homogeneous catalysis, heterogeneous catalysis, electronic catalysis, and photocatalysis. As much, electrocatalytic reduction of nitrate pollution into valuable compounds is a low‐energy consumption and environmentally friendly route, which combines environmental and economic advantages by efficiently eliminating pollutant and recycling waste. This review systematically summarizes the current researches on atomically precise metal clusters in the electroreduction of nitrate to produce high‐valued chemicals such as ammonia, urea, cyclohexanone oxime, and amino acids. The emphasis on the complexed reaction pathways and key intermediates involved in the conversion of nitrate into different target products is studied. The relationship between the structure of metal clusters and catalytic properties is delved into. This review aims to provide valuable insights for the design of high‐performance metal cluster catalysts to achieve efficient conversion from nitrate to high‐value‐added chemicals.
