Abstract:

Undercoordinated sites on metal catalysts are pivotal for enhancing electrocatalytic reactions, particularly in processes like coreduction, where multiple intermediates must be generated and coupled. Traditional synthesis methods, however, are limited in their ability to produce these low-coordination sites. In this study, we developed an amorphous indium catalyst (A-In@BO x ) using a boron oxide-assisted method that achieves a uniquely low coordination number (CN = 3.6) with a high density of 67.2 wt %. This structural characteristic significantly enhances the catalytic efficiency for urea synthesis, achieving a yield rate of 2317.58 mu g h-1 mgcat -1 and a Faradaic efficiency of 51.43% at -0.45 V versus RHE. The undercoordinated indium sites (UC-In) on A-In@BO x improve the conversion of NO3 - to NO2 -, effectively generating *NO2 as a crucial nitrogen intermediate for carbon-nitrogen coupling, while the inherently limited activity for CO2 reduction maintains *CO2 as the primary carbon intermediate. Our integrated in situ spectroscopy and theoretical simulations show that electron transfer from UC-In to *NO2 markedly reduces the free energy barrier for CO2 protonation from 1.77 to 0.04 eV, thus promoting the formation of the key *COOH-NO2 intermediate. This breakthrough not only offers a fresh pathway for optimizing urea synthesis but also elucidates the coreduction mechanisms at undercoordinated metal sites, paving the way for the design of highly selective catalysts.
