Selective electroreduction of CO2 to acetone by single copper atoms anchored on N-doped porous carbon

Efficient electroreduction of CO2 to multi-carbon products is challenging. Here, the single atom Cu encapsulated on N-doped porous carbon catalysts are designed for reducing CO2 to acetone at low overpotentials and the active sites are identified as Cu coordination with four pyrrole-N atoms.
