Creating Added Value with a Waste: Methylation of Amines with CO2 and H2

Year: 2014

Type: article

Abstract: Unknown before 2013, a novel methodology utilizes CO2 as a carbon source for the methylation of amines, with water as the by-product. This strategy offers a sustainable route to methylamines by converting CO2 to value-added chemicals, using molecular hydrogen as a cheap and renewable reductant. The method may open novel applications for recycling CO2 to bulk and fine chemicals.
