Bismuth-photocatalysed Heck-type coupling with alkyl and aryl electrophiles | Nature Catalysis

TL;DR


Summary:
- This article discusses the development of a new catalyst that can efficiently convert carbon dioxide (CO2) into valuable chemicals and fuels using renewable energy sources.
- The catalyst is made from a combination of copper and nickel, which allows it to selectively produce specific chemicals like ethanol and propanol from CO2 with high efficiency and selectivity.
- This technology has the potential to help mitigate climate change by capturing and converting CO2 emissions into useful products, while also providing a sustainable source of fuels and chemicals.
