More Details: Recently, significant research has been conducted on the conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) into value-added chemicals. With the decreasing cost of clean electricity, electrochemical methods have emerged as potential approaches for converting and fixing CO2. Organic electrochemical synthesis is a promising method for utilizing CO2 because it transforms CO2 into higher-value chemicals. This review introduces the research aspects of CO2 conversion and the mechanisms of CO2 organic electrocarboxylation reactions. Recent progress in electrocarboxylation with CO2 is discussed, considering organic substrates and cathode types under different reaction mechanisms. Finally, the challenges and prospects in this field are highlighted with the aim of further promoting the fundamental understanding of CO2 organic electrocarboxylation.
