Boosting electrocatalytic CO2–to–ethanol production via asymmetric C–C coupling

It is of high interest to convert CO2 into valuable ethanol product. Here the authors demonstrate the asymmetric C-C coupling triggered on Ag-modified oxide-derived Cu sites can accelerate and steer the reaction pathway for ethanol production with high faradaic efficiency and current density.
