Polymer coordination promotes selective CO 2 reduction by cobalt phthalocyanine

Year: 2016

Type: article

Abstract: We present a study of the mechanistic factors that transform cobalt phthalocyanine from a catalyst that shows modest performance for the electrocatalytic reduction of CO 2 to CO production into one of the most active and selective molecular catalyst reported in aqueous media when immobilized in a poly-4-vinylpyridine membrane
