| Research Abstract |
Carbon dioxide is a renewable and nontoxic C1 source into various useful chemicals. I have found that a simple monomeric tungstate [WO4]2- can act as a highly efficient homogeneous catalyst for various kinds of carbon dioxide transformations at atmospheric pressure. The tungsten-oxo moiety shows bifunctional activation of both carbon dioxide and substrates. The effectiveness of the present system is evidenced by high yields and applicability to a wide range of substrates such as amines, 2-aminobenzonitriles, and propargylic alcohols.
