Heterogeneous photo/electrochemical C–N coupling from small carbon substrates (i.e. CO2, CO and alcohols) and inorganic nitrogen (i.e. NH3, NOx and NOx-) has emerged as a promising synthesis method for high value compounds, such as urea, amines and amides. This approach can operate under mild, ambient conditions using renewable electricity, offering an environmentally friendly alternative to thermo-chemical processes. Moreover, its compatibility with a broad range of substrates enables the efficient synthesis of diverse nitrogen-containing products.
With this cross-journal Collection, the editors at Nature Communications, Communications Materials, and Scientific Reports invite manuscripts that highlight advances in the electrocatalytic and photocatalytic C-N coupling of inorganic nitrogen and simple carbon feedstocks. We encourage submissions, focusing on catalyst development, mechanistic insights, electrolyzer technology, and other related topics.
Nature Communications is edited by in-house professional editors.
Communications Materials is edited by both in-house professional editors and Editorial Board Members.
Scientific Reports is managed by in-house professional editors and edited by Editorial Board Members.
Our editors work closely together to ensure the quality of our published papers and consistency in author experience.
