Constructing Lewis Acid–Base Pairs to Boost Electrocatalytic Hydrogenation of p‐Nitrobenzoic Acid to Valuable p‐Aminobenzoic Acid Using Water as the Hydrogen Source

Electrocatalytic hydrogenation of toxic nitrobenzene to value-added aniline is of great significance in addressing the issues of energy crisis and environmental pollution. However, it is a considerable challenging and crucial to develop highly efficient and earth-abundant transition metal-based electrocatalysts with superior durability for the electro-hydrogenation of nitrobenzene due to the competitive hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). In this work, a facile approach is designed and introduced to constructing an integrated self-supported heterostructured Co
