Abstract
Carbon dioxide is the stable carbon end product of metabolism and other combustions, and it is an abundant yet low-value carbon source. This molecule would be very valuable as a renewable source if it were to be effectively transformed into reduced organic compounds under mild conditions. 1 However, thermodynamic stability of CO 2 has prevented its utilization in industrial chemical processes, and thus this represents a continuing scientific challenge. Here we ...
