Electrochemical incorporation of carbon dioxide into alkenes by nickel complexes
摘要:
Electrogenerated Ni(0) complexes from stable Ni(II) compounds are the catalysts for the electrochemical incorporation of carbon dioxide into carbon-carbon double bonds. Different kind of olefin derivatives have been carboxylated to afford mono- or dicarboxylic acid derivatives depending on the alkene structure. The electrolyses are carried out in one compartment cells fitted with a magnesium anode under mild conditions.
