“…Carbon dioxide is a an easily available and non-toxic chemical, and at the same time, it is implicated in environmental, energy and sustainability issues [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ]. Thus, the last two decades have witnessed an unprecedentedly intense effort of academic and industrial research in two main directions, i.e., to exploit CO 2 as a C 1 synthon for organic synthesis [ 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 ] and to develop more and more efficient systems able to capture and store CO 2 [ 12 , 13 ]. The former goal is challenging for a variety of reactions, and a wide number of metal catalysts have been proposed to access valuable organic compounds and materials via CO 2 fixation strategies, which, however, require harsh conditions (high temperature and CO 2 pressure) in several cases [ 14 , 15 ].…”

With the development of industry and improvement in living standards, carbon dioxide emissions have increased significantly year by year, causing serious environmental problems, such as global warming and climate change, which have been receiving much attention. [1] Effective capture and utilization of carbon dioxide is an important means to alleviate the increase in carbon dioxide content in the atmosphere. [2] The electrochemical reduction reaction of carbon dioxide (CO 2 RR) can not only effectively solve the problem of the environmental impact of excessive carbon dioxide emissions, but also convert unstable renewable resources to stable chemical energy for storage. [3] Therefore, the target of recent research is how to transfer carbon dioxide into valuable chemicals and fuels. [4] Among these high-value-added chemical substances, formic acid has one of the most wide ranges of application as a reactant material in the dye and leather industry. [5] Moreover, formic acid can also be treated as one of the centers of energy transportation and preservation, that is, for simple and effective conversion into H 2 or CO. [6] Compared with other possible chemical product conversion pathways, the reduction process of CO 2 to C1 products (CO and formic acid) is a classic double electron transfer reaction that occurs easily, and the electron utilization efficiency is very high. Therefore, it is considered to be an economically feasible, simple, and effective method. [7] Due to the thermodynamic stability of carbon dioxide molecules, the reduction process is difficult to complete spontaneously. The participation of the catalyst can shorten the time

“…Carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) is a thermodynamically stable and kinetic inert molecule however utilization and functionalization of CO 2 found many unique modes of actions [1,2]. For example, CO 2 can be used as temporary protecting group, thus preventing polymerization of acrylonitriles initiated by cyanide anion [3,4].…”

Carbon dioxide is an intrinsically stable molecule; however, it can readily react with various nucleophilic reagents. In the presence of a cyanide source, CO2 was proven to be useful to promote addition reactions. Here we report the use of CO2 to facilitate 1,4-conjugate cyanide addition reaction to chalcones to generate organonitriles. Nitriles are key component in organic synthesis due to their utility in numerous functional group transformation, however, conjugation addition of cyanide has been a challenge in this substrate class due to side reactions. To mitigate this, we employed simple ammonium and metal cyanide sources as nucleophiles under carbon dioxide atmosphere where high selectivity toward the desired product was obtained. The presented reaction is not feasible under inert atmosphere, which highlights the important role of CO2, as a Lewis and Brøndsted acidic catalyst. Further derivatization of organonitriles compounds were performed to showcase the utility of the reaction, while an unprecedented dimerization reaction was identified and characterized, affording a cyclopentanone scaffold.
