Mild Reduction of Carbon Dioxide to Methane with Tertiary Silanes Catalyzed by Platinum and Palladium Silyl Pincer Complexes

Pincing CO2: Group 10 (Pd, Pt) silyl pincer complexes in combination with B(C6F5)3 can facilitate the efficient catalytic conversion of CO2 to methane with a tertiary silane as the reductant under mild conditions. The reduction involves the formation of Pd and Pt formatoborate complexes.
