In our developing world, carbon dioxide has become one of the most abundant greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. It is a stable, inert, small molecule that continues to present significant challenges toward its chemical activation as a useful carbon end product. This tutorial review describes one approach to the reduction of carbon dioxide to carbon fuels, using cobalt and nickel molecular catalysts, with particular focus on studying the thermodynamics and kinetics of CO(2) binding to metal catalytic sites.
在我们这个发展中世界，二氧化碳已经成为大气中最丰富的温室气体之一。它是一种稳定、惰性的小分子，在将其化学激活为有用的碳最终产物方面仍然存在重大挑战。本教程综述描述了使用钴和镍分子催化剂将二氧化碳还原为碳燃料的一种方法，特别关注研究 CO(2)与金属催化位点结合的热力学和动力学。
