AbstractWater oxidation presents a promising avenue for hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production. However, the reliance on alkaline bicarbonate electrolytes as an intermediate has limitations, such as H2O2 decomposition and a narrow pH effectiveness range (7–9), restricting its utility across wider pH ranges. This study unveils a crystal OH mediating pathway that stabilizes SO4OH* as a crucial intermediate.

AbstractThe electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction towards value-added fuel and feedstocks often relies on metal-based catalysts. Organic molecular catalysts, which are more acutely tunable than metal catalysts, are still unable to catalyse CO2 to hydrocarbons under industrially relevant current densities for long-term operation, and the catalytic mechanism is still elusive.
