“…The formation of formamide achieves an FE of 33.5% at 120 mA cm −2 (total current: 264 A), exhibiting the large application prospects of this coupling strategy. More recently, the long‐chain and aryl‐ring amides have also been successfully synthesized from alcohols and amines with high selectivity 146 . This progress provides significant guidance for developing valuable C–N coupling products via anodic oxidation.…”

The electrocatalytic synthesis of C–N coupling compounds from CO2 and nitrogenous species not only offers an effective avenue to achieve carbon neutrality and reduce environmental pollution, but also establishes a route to synthesize valuable chemicals, such as urea, amide, and amine. This innovative approach expands the application range and product categories beyond simple carbonaceous species in electrocatalytic CO2 reduction, which is becoming a rapidly advancing field. This review summarizes the research progress in electrocatalytic urea synthesis, using N2, NO2−, and NO3− as nitrogenous species, and explores emerging trends in the electrosynthesis of amide and amine from CO2 and nitrogen species. Additionally, the future opportunities in this field are highlighted, including electrosynthesis of amino acids and other compounds containing C–N bonds, anodic C–N coupling reactions beyond water oxidation, and the catalytic mechanism of corresponding reactions. This critical review also captures the insights aimed at accelerating the development of electrochemical C–N coupling reactions, confirming the superiority of this electrochemical method over the traditional techniques.

“…[51] Previous research efforts have outlined diverse pathways for NORR and C-N bonds construction by utilizing theoretical calculations and electrochemical in situ spectroscopy. [52][53][54][55][56] As depicted in Figure 3, these pathways primarily involve key intermediate species, including *NH x and *NH 2 OH, which play pivotal roles in synthesizing valuable products like NH 3 and NH 2 OH. Furthermore, by co-electrolyzing NO with specific carbon sources, novel chemicals (e.g., amino acids, oximes, amines, amides, and urea) can be generated through carbon-nitrogen coupling reactions.…”

The artificial disturbance in the nitrogen cycle has necessitated an urgent need for nitric oxide (NO) removal. Electrochemical technologies for NO conversion have gained increasing attention in recent years. This comprehensive review presents the recent advancements in selective electrocatalytic conversion of NO to high value‐added chemicals, with specific emphasis on catalyst design, electrolyte composition, mass diffusion, and adsorption energies of key intermediate species. Furthermore, the review explores the synergistic electrochemical co‐electrolysis of NO with specific carbon source molecules, enabling the synthesis of a range of valuable chemicals with C‐N bonds. It also provides in‐depth insights into the intricate reaction pathways and underlying mechanisms, offering valuable perspectives on the challenges and prospects of selective NO electrolysis.

“…For the first time, Zou's group successfully realized the formation of amides by anodic co‐electrolysis of alcohols and ammonia at industrial current densities under ambient conditions using β ‐Ni(OH) 2 as a catalyst ( Figure 19 a). [ 80 ] The β ‐Ni(OH) 2 catalyst was prepared using the hydrothermal method and characterized via SEM, TEM, and other characterization methods. Then, the electrocatalytic mechanism of β ‐Ni(OH) 2 was explored by electrochemical measurement, ATR‐SEIRAS and DEMS.…”

Electrocatalytic C−N couplings are promising alternatives to construct C−N bonds and to synthesize vital chemicals, including amine, amide, amino acid, oxime, imine, and nitrile, under ambient conditions. In recent years, the electrocatalytic C−N coupling has attracted a wide range of research interest and has achieved considerable developments. Here, the electrocatalytic C−N coupling is systematically reviewed aiming at reductive cathode and oxidative anode. In the cathodic part, the electrocatalytic coupling reaction systems, the corresponding design principles of electrocatalysts for different reaction systems, the mechanism studies from experimental and theoretical aspects, and the application‐oriented electrocatalytic devices for electrocatalytic C−N couplings are summarized. Anodic C−N coupling offers a potential approach to replace the conventional energy‐demand synthesis protocols, and is an indispensable part of the green and controllable construction of unsaturated C = N and C≡N bonds. According to the principle that electron transfer is the crucial point in anodic C−N coupling, the anodic coupling reactions are sorted out based on the direct and the indirect C−N coupling paths, respectively. Finally, the challenges and outlooks in this field are proposed. Electrocatalytic C−N coupling is an appealing research topic in electrochemistry and possesses infinite possibilities in the future.
