Abstract
The conversion of CO2 into CO as a substitute for processing fossil fuels to produce hydrocarbons is a sustainable, carbon neutral energy technology. However, the electrochemical reduction of CO2 into a synthesis gas (CO and H2) at a commercial scale requires an efficient electrocatalyst. In this perspective, a series of six new palladium complexes with the general formula [Pd(L)(Y)]Y, where L is a donor-flexible PYA, N2,N6-bis(1-ethylpyridin-4(1H)-ylidene)pyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide, N2,N6-bis(1-butylpyridin-4(1H)-ylidene)pyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide, or N2,N6-bis(1-benzylpyridin-4(1H)-ylidene)pyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide, and Y = OAc or Cl-, were utilized as active electrocatalysts for the conversion of CO2 into a synthesis gas. These palladium(ii) pincer complexes were synthesized from their respective H-PYA proligands using 1,8-diazobicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) or sodium acetate as a base. All the compounds were successfully characterized by various physical methods of analysis, such as proton and carbon NMR, FTIR, CHN, and single-crystal XRD. The redox chemistry of palladium complexes toward carbon dioxide activation suggested an evident CO2 interaction with each Pd(ii) catalyst. [Pd(N2,N6-bis(1-ethylpyridin-4(1H)-ylidene)pyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide)(Cl)]Cl showed the best electrocatalytic activity for CO2 reduction into a synthesis gas under the acidic condition of trifluoracetic acid (TFA) with a minimum overpotential of 0.40 V, a maximum turnover frequency (TOF) of 101 s-1, and 58% FE of CO. This pincer scaffold could be stereochemically tuned with the exploration of earth abundant first row transition metals for further improvements in the CO2 reduction chemistry.

Abstract
Herein, we report the synthesis, characterization, and electrocatalytic CO2 reduction activity of a series of Pd(II) complexes supported by tetradentate pyridinophane ligands. In particular, we focus on the electrocatalytic CO2 reduction activity of a Pd(II) complex supported by the mixed hard--soft donor ligand 2,11-dithia[3.3](2,6)pyridinophane (N2S2). We also provide spectroscopic evidence of a CO-induced decomposition pathway for the same catalyst, which provides insights into catalyst poisoning for molecular Pd CO2 reduction electrocatalysts.

Abstract
Although the core of electrochemistry involves simple oxidation and reduction reactions, it can be complicated in real electrochemical organic reactions. The principles used in electrochemical reactions have been derived using physical organic chemistry, which drives other organic/inorganic reactions. This review mainly comprises two themes: the first discusses the factors that help optimize an electrochemical reaction, including electrodes, supporting electrolytes, and electrochemical cell design, and the second outlines studies conducted in the field over a period of 10 years. Electrochemical reactions can be used as a versatile tool for synthetically important reactions by modifying the constant electrolysis current.

Abstract
The electrocatalytic transformation of carbon dioxide has been a topic of interest in the field of CO2 utilization for a long time. Recently, the area has seen increasing dynamics as an alternative strategy to catalytic hydrogenation for CO2 reduction. While many studies focus on the direct electron transfer to the CO2 molecule at the electrode material, molecular transition metal complexes in solution offer the possibility to act as catalysts for the electron transfer. C1 compounds such as carbon monoxide, formate, and methanol are often targeted as the main products, but more elaborate transformations are also possible within the coordination sphere of the metal center. This perspective article will cover selected examples to illustrate and categorize the currently favored mechanisms for the electrochemically induced transformation of CO2 promoted by homogeneous transition metal complexes. The insights will be corroborated with the concepts and elementary steps of organometallic catalysis to derive potential strategies to broaden the molecular diversity of possible products.

Abstract
The decrease of total amount of atmospheric CO2 is an important societal challenge in which CO2 reduction has an important role to play. Electrocatalytic CO2 reduction with homogeneous catalysts is based on highly tunable catalyst design and exploits an abundant C1 source to make valuable products such as fuels and fuel precursors. These methods can also take advantage of renewable electricity as a green reductant. Mn-based catalysts offer these benefits while incorporating a relatively cheap and abundant first-row transition metal. Historically, interest in this field started with Mn(bpy-R)(CO)3X, whose performance matched that of its Re counterparts while achieving substantially lower overpotentials. This review examines an emerging class of homogeneous Mn-based electrocatalysts for CO2 reduction, Mn complexes with meridional tridentate coordination also known as Mn pincers, most of which contain redox-active ligands that enable multi-electron catalysis. Although there are relatively few examples in the literature thus far, these catalysts bring forth new catalytic mechanisms not observed for the well-established Mn(bpy-R)(CO)3X catalysts, and show promising reactivity for future studies.

Abstract
Because of the strong σ-donor and weak π-acceptor of the N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC), Mn-NHC complexes were found to be active for the reduction of CO2 to CO with high activity. However, some NHC-based manganese complexes showed low catalytic activity and required very negative potentials. We report herein that complex fac-[MnI(bis-MesNHC)(CO)3Br] [1; bis-MesNHC = 3,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-(1,1'-diimidazolin-2,2'-diylidene)methane] could catalyze the electrochemical reduction of CO2 to CO with high activity (TOFmax = 3180 ± 6 s-1) at a less negative potential. Due to the introduction of the bulky Mes groups, a one-electron-reduced intermediate {[Mn0(bis-MesNHC)(CO)3]0 (2•)} was isolated as a packed "dimer" and crystallographically characterized. Stopped-flow Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy was used to prove the direct reaction between doubly reduced intermediate fac-[Mn(bis-MesNHC)(CO)3]- and CO2; the tetracarbonyl Mn complex [Mn+(bis-MesNHC)(CO)4]+ ([2-CO]+) was captured, and its further reduction proposed as the rate-limiting step.

Abstract
Two structural isomers of (9H-pyreno[4,5-d]imidazol-10-yl)-benzaldehyde, with para and meta substitution patterns, were synthesized by condensation of 4,5-pyrenedione with terephthalaldehyde and isophthalaldehyde, respectively. These new pyrenoimidazole derivatives were characterized by single-crystal X-ray crystallography, UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, and cyclic voltammetry to elucidate their structural, solid-state packing, and electronic properties. Interactions of these compounds with fluoride anions in polar organic solvents (acetone and dimethyl sulfoxide) were investigated by NMR, UV-vis, and fluorescence techniques in conjunction with density functional theory calculations. UV-vis analysis showed that the binding of the two pyrenoimidazolyl benzaldehydes with fluoride anions resulted in significant colorimetric responses, while fluorescence studies showed that the para-pyrenoimidazolyl benzaldehyde behaved as an intramolecular charge transfer fluorescent probe, exhibiting ratiometric sensing performance to efficiently detect and quantify fluoride anions at the sub-millimolar level.

Abstract
A binary system consisting of a ditopic planar pseudo-pincer ligand (qlca = quinoline-2-carbaldehyde (pyridine-2-carbonyl) hydrazone) coordinated to two metal centres affording [{Ru(bpy)2}(μ-qlca)NiCl2]Cl·4H2O·CH3OH (2) (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) is reported. The Ni2+ moiety acts as the electrocatalytic active site for CO2 reduction to CO. The turnover frequency (TOF) increased from 0.83 s-1 for [Ni(qlca)Cl2] (3) to 120 s-1 for 2, and the overpotential is 350 mV less than that for 3 due to the electronic influence of the {Ru(bpy)2}2+ moiety on the catalytic active site.

A valence isoelectronic and isostructural series of charged bis(N-heterocyclic carbene) pincer complexes [M(bC^N^bC)X]OTf and [M(bC^N^bC)CH3CN](OTf)2 (where M = Ni, Pd, and Pt, bC^N^bC = 1,1'-(pyridine-2,6-diylbis(methylene))bis(3-butylbenzo[d]imidazol-2-ylidene)) were synthesized, characterized, modelled by density functional theory calculations, and compared for their electrochemical properties and reactivity with CO2. Although the electrochemical response of each complex is altered by the presence of CO2, controlled potential electrolysis experiments demonstrated the superior ability of [Pd] to reduce CO2 to CO in faradaic efficiencies up to 58% in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid, compared to [Pt] and [Ni] which showed only marginal production of CO, giving the trend [Pd] ≫ [Pt] > [Ni] for this series.

Abstract
The utilization of CO2 via electrochemical reduction constitutes a promising approach toward production of value-added chemicals or fuels using intermittent renewable energy sources. For this purpose, molecular electrocatalysts are frequently studied and the recent progress both in tuning of the catalytic properties and in mechanistic understanding is truly remarkable. While in earlier years research efforts were focused on complexes with rare metal centers such as Re, Ru, and Pd, the focus has recently shifted toward earth-abundant transition metals such as Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni. By application of appropriate ligands, these metals have been rendered more than competitive for CO2 reduction compared to the heavier homologues. In addition, the important roles of the second and outer coordination spheres in the catalytic processes have become apparent, and metal-ligand cooperativity has recently become a well-established tool for further tuning of the catalytic behavior. Surprising advances have also been made with very simple organocatalysts, although the mechanisms behind their reactivity are not yet entirely understood. Herein, the developments of the last three decades in electrocatalytic CO2 reduction with homogeneous catalysts are reviewed. A discussion of the underlying mechanistic principles is included along with a treatment of the experimental and computational techniques for mechanistic studies and catalyst benchmarking. Important catalyst families are discussed in detail with regard to mechanistic aspects, and recent advances in the field are highlighted.

Abstract
A new pincer ligand with N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) and 4-pyridinol-derived rings supports ruthenium complexes for photocatalytic CO2 reduction. The methoxy group on the pyridine ring offers unique catalysis advantages not seen with the unsubstituted analog. Our best catalyst offers selective CO formation, ∼250 turnover cycles, and a 40 h lifetime.

Abstract
A series of bis-NHC pincer complexes of palladium(II) have been prepared and characterized. These pyridyl-spaced dicarbene complexes ([(PDCR)Pd(MeCN)](PF6)2 ) were synthesized with substituents of varying steric bulk at the wingtip positions, which include R = methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, cyclohexyl, mesityl and 2,6-diisopropylphenyl. The synthesis of this library of complexes was accomplished either by direct metallation of the prerequisite pyridyl-spaced bis-imidazolium proligands with Pd(OAc)2 or via treatment with Ag2O to afford the corresponding silver carbenes, which were then transmetallated onto palladium. Solid-state structures for each of the [(PDCR)Pd(MeCN)](PF6)2 derivatives were obtained via X-ray crystallography and allowed for the steric properties of each PDCR ligand to be evaluated by two methods. These analyses, which included calculation of the percent buried volume (%VBur) and solid angles of the PDCR ligands, served to characterize the steric environment around the palladium center in each of the complexes that was prepared. Finally, voltammetry and controlled potential electrolysis studies were performed to characterize the redox chemistry of the [(PDCR)Pd(MeCN)](PF6)2 derivatives and assess if they could electrocatalyze the reduction of CO2. The influence of the steric properties of the PDCR ligand on the electrochemistry of the resulting complexes [(PDCR)Pd(MeCN)](PF6)2 is also discussed.

Abstract
The effect of modifying the pyridyl para position of lutidine-linked bis(N-heterocyclic carbene) Pd pincer complexes is studied both experimentally (R = OMe, H, Br, and COOR) and computationally, showing a strong effect on the first reduction potential of the complex and allowing the reduction potential to be tuned over a wide range in relation to the Hammett σp constant of the para substituent. The effect of the pyridyl para substituent on electron density of the metal center, frontier orbital energies, and dissociation energy of the trans ligand are also investigated in the context of reactivity with CO2 through electrochemical characterization of the complexes under N2 and CO2 and controlled potential electrolysis experiments where CO2 is reduced to CO.

Abstract
Two-dimensionally extended, polycyclic heteroaromatic molecules (heterocyclic nanographenes) are a highly versatile class of organic materials, applicable as functional chromophores and organic semiconductors. In this Review, we discuss the rich chemistry of large heteroaromatics, focusing on their synthesis, electronic properties, and applications in materials science. This Review summarizes the historical development and current state of the art in this rapidly expanding field of research, which has become one of the key exploration areas of modern heterocyclic chemistry.
