Abstract: Cupric subcarbonate (Cu2(OH)2CO3) was found to be effective for the reductive functionalization of CO2 to produce formamides and methylamines with phenylsilane as reductant. Interestingly, N-formylation and N-methylation were switched on/off by subtly choosing the ligand:… read more here.
