Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)-related Cu materials are promising candidates for promoting electrochemical CO2 reduction to produce valuable chemical feedstocks. However, many MOF materials inevitable undergo reconstruction under reduction conditions; therefore, exploiting the restructuring of MOF materials is of importance for the rational design of high-performance catalyst targeting multi-carbon products (C2). Herein, a facile solvent process is choosed to fabricate HKUST-1 with an anionic framework (a-HKUST-1) and utilize it as a pre-catalyst for alkaline CO2RR. The a-HKUST-1 catalyst can be electrochemically reduced into Cu with significant structural reconstruction under operating reaction conditions. The anionic HKUST-1 derived Cu catalyst (aHD-Cu) delivers a FEC2H4 of 56% and FEC2 of ≈80% at -150 mA cm-2 in alkaline electrolyte. The resulting aHD-Cu catalyst has a high electrochemically active surface area and low coordinated sites. In situ Raman spectroscopy indicates that the aHD-Cu surface displays higher coverage of *CO intermediates, which favors the production of hydrocarbons.

Abstract
Renewable energy-driven conversion of CO2 to value-added fuels and chemicals via electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) technology is regarded as a promising strategy with substantial environmental and economic benefits to achieve carbon neutrality. Because of its sluggish kinetics and complex reaction paths, developing robust catalytic materials with exceptional selectivity to the targeted products is one of the core issues, especially for extensively concerned Cu-based materials. Manipulating Cu species by anionic coordination is identified as an effective way to improve electrocatalytic performance, in terms of modulating active sites and regulating structural reconstruction. This review elaborates on recent discoveries and progress of Cu-based CO2RR catalytic materials enhanced by anionic coordination control, regarding reaction paths, functional mechanisms, and roles of different non-metallic anions in catalysis. Finally, the review concludes with some personal insights and provides challenges and perspectives on the utilization of this strategy to build desirable electrocatalysts.

Deciphering in-situ surface reconstruction in two-dimensional CdPS 3 nanosheets for efficient biomass hydrogenation. Nat Commun 2024; 15:5174.

Abstract
Steering on the intrinsic active site of an electrode material is essential for efficient electrochemical biomass upgrading to valuable chemicals with high selectivity. Herein, we show that an in-situ surface reconstruction of a two-dimensional layered CdPS3 nanosheet electrocatalyst, triggered by electrolyte, facilitates efficient 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) hydrogenation to 2,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)furan (BHMF) under ambient condition. The in-situ Raman spectroscopy and comprehensive post-mortem catalyst characterizations evidence the construction of a surface-bounded CdS layer on CdPS3 to form CdPS3/CdS heterostructure. This electrocatalyst demonstrates promising catalytic activity, achieving a Faradaic efficiency for BHMF reaching 91.3 ± 2.3 % and a yield of 4.96 ± 0.16 mg/h at - 0.7 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode. Density functional theory calculations reveal that the in-situ generated CdPS3/CdS interface plays a pivotal role in optimizing the adsorption of HMF* and H* intermediate, thus facilitating the HMF hydrogenation process. Furthermore, the reconstructed CdPS3/CdS heterostructure cathode, when coupled with MnCo2O4.5 anode, enables simultaneous BHMF and formate synthesis from HMF and glycerol substrates with high efficiency.

Abstract
The electrocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CO2 RR) to value-added chemical products is an effective strategy for both greenhouse effect mitigation and high-density energy storage. However, controllable manipulation of the oxidation state and porous structure of Cu-carbon based catalysts to achieve high selectivity and current density for a particular product remains very challenging. Herein, a strategy derived from Cu-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for the synthesis of controllable oxidation states and porous structure of Cu-carbon (Cu-pC, Cu2 O-pC, and Cu2 O/Cu-pC) is demonstrated. By regulating oxygen partial pressure during the annealing process, the valence state of the Cu and mesoporous structures of surrounding carbon are changed, leads to the different selectivity of products. Cu2 O/CuO-pC with the higher oxidation state exhibits FEC2H4 of 65.12% and a partial current density of -578 mA cm-2 , while the Cu2 O-pC shows the FECH4 over 55% and a partial current density exceeding -438 mA cm-2 . Experimental and theoretical studies indicate that porous carbon-coated Cu2 O structures favor the CH4 pathway and inhibit the hydrogen evolution reaction. This work provides an effective strategy for exploring the influence of the various valence states of Cu and mesoporous carbon structures on the selectivity of CH4 and C2 H4 products in CO2 RR.
