摘      要：Electrocatalytic carb on dioxide reducti on(CO_(2)R)presents a promising route to establish zero-e mission carb on cycle and store in termittent ren ewable energy into chemical fuels for steady energy *** is an ideal energy carrier as alternative fuels and one of the most important commodity ***,methanol is currently mainly produced from fossil-based syngas,the production of which yields tremendous carb on emission *** CO_(2)R towards metha nol poses great potential to shift the paradigm of methanol *** this perspective,we focus our discussions on producing methanol from electrochemical CO_(2)R,using metallomacrocyclic molecules as the model *** discuss the motivation of having methanol as the sole CO_(2)R product,the documented application of metallomacrocyclic catalysts for CO_(2)R,and recent advance in catalyzing CO_(2) to methanol with cobalt phthalocyanine-based *** attempt to understand the key factors in determining the activity,selectivity,and stability of electrocatalytic CO_(2)-to-methanol conversion,and to draw mechanistic insights from existing ***,we identify the challenges hindering methanol electrosynthesis directly from CO_(2) and some intriguing directions worthy of further investigation and exploration.
