The Role of Organic Promoters in the Electroreduction of Carbon Dioxide
Paul Joseph Dyson, Dmitry Vasilyev
The electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2RR) currently attracts considerable attention as a way to make fuels and value-added products from CO2 using renewable energy. Much effort has been devoted to developing efficient electrode materials for ...
AMER CHEMICAL SOC2021Principal Descriptors of Ionic Liquid Co-catalysts for the Electrochemical Reduction of CO2
Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Paul Joseph Dyson, Serhii Shyshkanov, Dmitry Vasilyev, Erfan Shirzadi
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 ...
AMER CHEMICAL SOC2020A polymeric ionic liquid catalyst for the N-formylation and N-methylation of amines using CO2/PhSiH3
Paul Joseph Dyson, Andreas Züttel, Zhaofu Fei, Serhii Shyshkanov, Kyriakos Stylianou, Arunraj Chidambaram, Aswin Gopakumar, Dmitry Vasilyev
We describe a polymeric ionic liquid (PIL) derived from trimethyl(p-vinylbenzyl)ammonium chloride ([VBTAm]Cl) that efficiently catalyzes the N-formylation of amines employing CO2 and PhSiH3 at room temperature with low catalyst loadings in near-quantitativ ...
2020Rational design of ionic compounds for electrocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide
Electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide is one of the plausible approaches towards renewable energy carriers. When coupled with electricity, which can be provided by sustainable technologies, it becomes a method of high importance with potential value ...
EPFL2019A 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 ...
2019Delineation of the Critical Parameters of Salt Catalysts in the N-Formylation of Amines with CO2
Paul Joseph Dyson, Martin Hulla, Dmitry Vasilyev
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 ...
WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH2019Intricacies of Cation-Anion Combinations in Imidazolium Salt-Catalyzed Cycloaddition of CO2 Into Epoxides
Paul Joseph Dyson, Gabor Laurenczy, Felix Daniel Bobbink, Florent Menoud, Martin Hulla, Dmitry Vasilyev, Sami Manoubi Armand Chamam
The cycloaddition of CO2 into epoxides catalyzed by imidazolium and related salts continues to attract attention due to the industrial importance of the cyclic carbonate products. The mechanism of the imidazolium-catalyzed transformation has been proposed ...
2018Pyrazolium 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 ...
2018New Insights Into the Role of Imidazolium-Based Promoters for the Electroreduction of CO2 on a Silver Electrode
Paul Joseph Dyson, Rosario Scopelliti, Marcel Roland Schreier, Dmitry Vasilyev
The electrochemical reduction of CO2 to CO is a reaction of central importance for sustainable energy conversion and storage. Herein, structure activity relationships of a series of imidazolium-based cocatalysts for this reaction are described, which demon ...
