Principal Descriptors of Ionic Liquid Co-catalysts for the Electrochemical Reduction of CO2

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Paul Joseph Dyson, Dmitry Vasilyev, Erfan Shirzadi, Serhii Shyshkanov

Electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2RR) is promoted by ionic liquid (IL) co-catalysts, and several mechanisms have been proposed to explain their role. Due to the complexity of the CO2RR and the limited number of active IL co-catalysts, a conse ...

A General and Facile Approach for the Electrochemical Reduction of Carbon Dioxide Inspired by Deep Eutectic Solvents

Paul Joseph Dyson, Dmitry Vasilyev

Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) were applied to the electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR). Choline-based DESs represent a non-toxic and inexpensive alternative to room-temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) as additives to the system or as electrolyte. F ...

Delineation of the Critical Parameters of Salt Catalysts in the N-Formylation of Amines with CO2

Paul Joseph Dyson, Daniel Ortiz Trujillo, Dmitry Vasilyev, Martin Hulla

N-formylation of amines with CO2 is base-catalyzed and studies of salt catalysts reveal that the reaction is efficiently catalyzed by "free" floating anions of high basicity, as represented in the cover image. More information can be found in the Full Pape ...

Pyrazolium Ionic Liquid Co-catalysts for the Electroreduction of CO2

Paul Joseph Dyson, Dmitry Vasilyev, Erfan Shirzadi

Pyrazolium ionic liquids (Pz ILs) were employed as co-catalysts for electrochemical conversion of CO2 to CO on a silver disk electrode, leading to a significant decrease in the onset potential for the reduction (ca. 500 mV). The electrochemical conversion ...
