Abstract

Intermetallic compounds (IMCs) can be used to create catalysts with unsurpassed practical characteristics, including for demanding and stable electrochemical reactions such as nitrogen reduction (NRR), nitrate reduction (NO3RR), and nitrite reduction (NO2RR), which can serve as a replacement for the industrial Haber–Bosch process. An urgent task is to develop efficient electrocatalysts using low-cost base metals, with partial or complete replacement of noble metals. This short perspective review focuses primarily on the latest work from 2024–2025 and serves as a guide and starting point for a wide readership on the IMC applications of catalysts.
