Abstract

Chemistry Chemistry, Multidisciplinary Green & Sustainable Science & Technology Physical Sciences Science & Technology Science & Technology - Other Topics
Well-defined ruthenium(ii) (PNP)-P-3 pincer complexes were developed for the hydrogenation of carbon dioxide. Excellent product selectivity and catalytic activity with TOF (turnover frequency) and TON (turnover number) up to 13000 h(-1) and 33000, respectively, in a THF/H2O biphasic system were achieved. Notably, effective conversion of carbon dioxide from air into formate was conducted in the presence of an amine, allowing easy product separation and catalyst recycling.
