Here, we present a fast, effective, and sustainable route for coupling diverse alcohols, amines and amides with CO<sub>2</sub> via heterogenization of a natural metal-based homogeneous catalyst through decorating on functionalized graphene oxide. Combined synthetic, experimental, and theoretical studies unravel mechanistic routes to convergent 4鈥慹lectron reduction of CO<sub>2</sub> under mild conditions.</p> Tue, 24 Sep 2024 18:48:36 +0000 admin 10345 at /oss Chemical Society Seminar: Peter Mahaffy-Realizing the Role for Chemistry and Chemistry Education in the Emergence of Sustainability: A Systems Approach /oss/channels/event/chemical-society-seminar-peter-mahaffy-realizing-role-chemistry-and-chemistry-education-emergence-360986 <h2>Abstract:</h2> Thu, 07 Nov 2024 18:43:30 +0000 admin 10336 at /oss Chemical Society Seminar (Allan Hay Lecture): Bert Meijer- From supramolecular polymers to functional materials and systems /oss/channels/event/chemical-society-seminar-allan-hay-lecture-bert-meijer-supramolecular-polymers-functional-materials-360987 <h2>Abstract:</h2> Thu, 07 Nov 2024 18:44:52 +0000 admin 10339 at /oss Nuit blanche - ChemPOP /oss/channels/event/nuit-blanche-chempop-363781 <p>This Nuit blanche, we are looking for the next big act.
