High current densities up to 400 mA cm<sup>−2</sup> significantly increased the Faradaic efficiency toward C<sub>2+</sub> products.

A reduced CO<sub>2</sub> excess rate (<i>λ</i> = 2) further favored C<sub>2+</sub> formation, potentially by decreasing CO<sub>2</sub> adsorption in favor of CO surface coverage. Contrary to prior reports in H-type cells, pulsed current operation did not improve C<sub>2+</sub> production in the GDE-equipped flow cell, suggesting that enhanced mass transport minimizes pulsing benefits observed in diffusion-limited systems.

Despite its growing popularity, the fundamental molecular interactions governing electrochemical systems remain poorly understood. Many electrosynthetic reactions show strong dependence on the identity of the allegedly inert supporting electrolyte, which can significantly impact yields and selectivity, yet the physical origins of these effects are largely unexplored. A mechanistic understanding of electrolyte effects would enable more rational reaction design for applications. Here, we use cyclic voltammetry to investigate cobalt-based metal–carbon bond homolysis and elucidate how common supporting electrolytes influence reaction rates. Bulk electrolysis experiments further reveal how electrolyte choice affects overall selectivity. Peak-ratio analysis indicates that Co(Salen)–benzyl bond cleavage proceeds via a reversible homolysis mechanism that becomes rate-limited by bond dissociation at high substrate concentrations. The reaction rate varies systematically with electrolyte identity, and changes in oxidative addition rates are quantified using simulations. These experimental findings are supported by <i>ab initio</i> and classical molecular dynamics simulations, as well as density functional theory calculations, which provide insights into reaction pathways, energetics, and dynamics. Together, these results demonstrate that electrolyte selection enables rational tuning of reaction rates and downstream selectivity, highlighting the critical role of electrolytes in metal-catalyzed organic electrosynthesis.</p>","PeriodicalId":142,"journal":{"name":"ChemElectroChem","volume":"13 14","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.2,"publicationDate":"2026-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/celc.70267","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148462800","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
