Abstract
En 中文
The electrocatalytic oxidation of cyclohexanone/cyclohexanol (COR) to adipic acid offers a sustainable alternative to conventional nitric acid-based processes; enabling environmentally benign production of key nylon intermediates under mild conditions. However; the multistep nature of COR; involving complex intermediates and sluggish kinetics; necessitates the development of highly efficient and selective electrocatalysts. In recent years; nanostructure engineering has emerged as a powerful strategy to address these challenges by modulating surface chemistry; electronic structure; and interfacial environments. Such approaches are particularly advantageous for COR; where precise control over intermediate adsorption and reaction pathways is critical. In this review; we first summarize the fundamental reaction mechanisms and key performance metrics of COR. Subsequently; representative nanostructure engineering strategies including surface functionalization; defect engineering; heteroatom doping; and heterointerface construction; are discussed with emphasis on their structure-activity relationships. Furthermore; emerging practical applications are highlighted; including paired electrosynthesis of value-added chemicals; COR-assisted hydrogen production; and device-level integration in flow electrolyzers. Finally; current challenges and future perspectives are outlined to guide the rational design of advanced electrocatalysts for efficient adipic acid production.
