Activate and reduce: Carbon dioxide was reduced with silane using a stable N-heterocyclic carbene organocatalyst to provide methanol under very mild conditions. Dry air can serve as the feedstock, and the organocatalyst is much more efficient than transition-metal catalysts for this reaction. This approach offers a very promising protocol for chemical CO(2) activation and fixation.
使用稳定的N-杂环卡宾有机催化剂，通过硅烷将二氧化碳还原，在非常温和的条件下生成甲醇。干燥空气可作为原料，并且在该反应中，有机催化剂比过渡金属催化剂效率更高。这种方法为化学二氧化碳的激活和固定提供了一个非常有前景的方案。
