Abstract

Elucidating the atomic-level origin of chemoselectivity in electrocatalytic hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde over atomically precise metal nanoclusters is of fundamental interest. Our studies have demonstrated that the [Au₁₃(NHC^Me)₉Cl₃]²⁺ nanocluster exhibits prominent chemoselectivity for the deep hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde to form the hydrocinnamyl alcohol (HCOL) product.
