Description
Summary:A novel catalytic reaction has been designed to utilize, for the first time, CO 2 as a C 1 feedstock in the synthesis of N -methylamines. Simple zinc catalysts, based on commercially available zinc salts and ligands, prove highly efficient in promoting both a 6 electron reduction of carbon dioxide and the formation of a C-N bond, using hydrosilanes and amines.
