Abstract

Chemical fixation of carbon dioxide (CO2) into useful and valuable chemicals is a key technology for sustainable lowcarbon society because CO2 is a renewable and environmentally friendly C1 source, which is in contrast to toxic CO and phosgene.[1] However, CO2 is much less reactive than CO and phosgene, and a large energy input (eg, highly reactive reagents, high pressures of CO2, and stoichiometric amounts of strong ...
