a LSV curves of Co foil recorded in 1.0 M KOH without 1a at a scan rate of 10 mV s−1, and b 1a Conv. and 2a Sel. over Co foil with and without NaF. Reaction conditions: 1a (0.1 mmol, 14.28 mmol L−1), a mixed solution of 1.0 M KOH/dioxane (6:1 v/v, 7 mL), −1.2 V, 6 h, RT. c LSV curves of Co-F recorded in 1.0 M MOH (M = TMA+, Na+, and K+) electrolyte without 1a at a scan rate of 10 mV s−1, and d 1a Conv. and 2a Sel. over Co-F. Reaction conditions: 1a (0.1 mmol, 14.28 mmol L−1), a mixed solution of 1.0 M MOH (M = TMA+, Na+, and K+)/dioxane (6:1 v/v, 7 mL), −1.1 V, 6 h, RT. Error bars correspond to the standard deviation of three independent measurements.
