In size-controlled naked Cu<sub>5</sub>and Cu<sub>20</sub>nanoclusters the latter show anodic redox processes occurring at much lower potential with respect to Cu<sub>5</sub>, but the latter coordinate effectively CO<sub>2</sub>and allow to reduce CO<sub>2</sub>under cathodic conditions at lower overpotential.
