Heterocycle catalyzed carbonylation and hydroformylation with carbon dioxide
First Claim
1. A method for hydroformylation with carbon dioxide, comprising:
- (A) introducing water to a first compartment of an electrochemical cell, said first compartment including an anode;
(B) introducing carbon dioxide to a second compartment of said electrochemical cell, said second compartment including a solution of an electrolyte, a heterocyclic catalyst, and a cathode;
(C) introducing an alkene to said second compartment of said electrochemical cell; and
(D) applying an electrical potential between said anode and said cathode in said electrochemical cell sufficient for said cathode to induce liquid phase hydroformylation to form a product mixture.

Abstract
Methods and systems for heterocycle catalyzed carbonylation and hydroformylation with carbon dioxide are disclosed. A method may include, but is not limited to, steps (A) to (D). Step (A) may introduce water to a first compartment of an electrochemical cell. The first compartment may include an anode. Step (B) may introduce carbon dioxide to a second compartment of the electrochemical cell. The second compartment may include a solution of an electrolyte, a heterocyclic catalyst, and a cathode. Step (C) may introduce a second reactant to the second compartment of the electrochemical cell. Step (D) may apply an electrical potential between the anode and the cathode in the electrochemical cell sufficient to induce liquid phase carbonylation or hydroformylation to form a product mixture.
