Abstract

There is a great deal of current interest in the chemistry of C02, aimed in particular at new catalytic processes for the conversion of abundant C02 into organic chemicals of commercial value. As far as the reductive transformation of C02 is concerned, various methods have been developed,2 amongst which, the catalytic reduction of C02 with Hz seems to be an effective method.3 In homogeneous catalysis in solution, the reaction between C02, H2 and ...
