Cation-Mediated Proton Transfer Enhances Acidic CO2 Electrolysis on a Molecular Catalyst

Electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) in acidic media is attractive for mitigating carbonate formation, yet it typically relies on alkali metal cations to promote CO2RR over the competing hydrogen evolution reaction. Here we show that CH3NH3+, an alkylammonium cation with proton-donating capability, markedly...
