Abstract
Burning fossil fuels worldwide has led to an increasing CO2 concentration in the atmosphere to such a large extent that global climate change caused by greenhouse gases has become a major ecological challenge.
The catalytic conversion of CO2/H2/CO to methanol is already being performed on an industrial scale. Other products, such as formic acid, formic acid derivatives, formaldehyde, and carbon monoxide can be, in principle, synthesized by carbon dioxide hydrogenation. However, despite this progress, we are still far from the point where carbon dioxide becomes a concrete player in the sustainable chemistry/energy market.
The talk is devoted to designing ligand-metal cooperative catalytic systems for the hydrogenation of CO2. ...
