Abstract Urea electrosynthesis from co‐electrolysis of NO 3 − and CO 2 (UENC) under ambient conditions is recognized as an appealing approach for effective sustainable urea production, while it requires high‐efficiency UENC electrocatalysts to promote the C─N coupling hydrogenation processes. Herein, single‐atom Cu anchored on MoS (Cu 1 ‐MoS ) explored a highly active selective catalyst. Theoretical calculations operando spectroscopic characterizations unveil synergistic tandem catalysis UENC, where single atoms trigger early coupling, ‐edges key step * NH COOHNH generation. Strikingly, equipped in flow cell achieves excellent performance with maximum urea‐Faradaic efficiency 57.02% at −0.6 V corresponding yield rate 23.3 mmol h −1 g , surpassing nearly all previously reported catalysts.

In particular, uncertainty multielectron intermediates severely affects selectivity activity processes involving multiple electron proton transfers. Here, we present novel tandem catalyst with two compatible single-atom active sites Au Cu on red phosphorus (RP-AuCu) that efficiently converts urea. Experimental theoretical prediction results confirmed center promotes transfer between molecules phosphorus, thereby regulating activation produce electrophilic *COOH. addition, can enhance attack *COOH species *NH2, thus promoting selective formation bonds. Consequently, RP-AuCu exhibited yield 22.9 mmol gcat.-1 h-1 Faraday efficiency 88.5% (-0.6 VRHE), representing one highest levels electrocatalytic synthesis.

Electrochemical synthesis routes powered by renewable electricity can provide sustainable chemical commodities replacing conventional fossil-based processes. Increasing research focuses on value-added chemicals like the indispensable fertilizer urea, which also constitutes a study case for electrochemical CN-coupling. To guide identification of highly selective catalysts, we aim to new insight analysing existing experimental data selectivity transition metal catalysts towards electrochemically synthesized urea. Firstly, project high dimensional using principal component analysis (PCA) lower dimensions, and thereby confirm that urea is correlated with CO NH3. Furthermore, identified most suitable two-dimensional descriptors prediction out various adsorption energies calculated density functional theory (DFT). We suggest *H *O slabs predict in co-reduction CO2 nitrite ( NO2- ).
