Abstract:Selective reduction of CO<sub>2</sub> to formate
represents an ongoing challenge in photoelectrocatalysis. To provide
mechanistic insights, we investigate the kinetics of hydride transfer (HT) from
a series of metal-free hydride donors to CO<sub>2</sub>. The observed
dependence of experimental and calculated HT barriers on the thermodynamic
driving force was modeled using the Marcus hydride transfer formalism to obtain
the insights into the effect of reorganization energies on the react… Show more
