The electrocatalytic oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzoic acid is a process that often requires high voltage, leading increased energy consumption, side reactions (oxygen evolution reaction (OER)), and catalyst degradation. Herein, our study introduces novel approach. We demonstrate PtZn-ZnOx featuring PtZn intermetallic structure with abundant interfaces on the surface allows for an impressive selectivity 99.5% at low potential 0.725 V (vs reversible hydrogen electrode, RHE), which 0.6 lower than most reported studies. This testament efficiency catalyst, as it significantly reduces occurrence reactions, more efficient sustainable process. experimental density functional theory calculations demonstrated adsorption Ph–CH2OH Ph–CHO generation electrophilic OH* were promoted due unsaturated coordination Zn atom in interfaces. Furthermore, potential-determining step coupling was barrier interface, improved catalytic activity selectivity. outlines approach designing highly electrocatalysts high-efficiency valorization voltages.
