The article was titled 《Nickel-catalyzed electrochemical carboxylation of unactivated aryl and alkyl halides with CO2》.SDS of cas: 1877-71-0 The article contains the following contents:
A general and practical electro-reductive Ni-catalytic system, realizing the electrocatalytic carboxylation of unactivated aryl chlorides and alkyl bromides with CO2 were reported. A variety of unactivated aryl bromides, iodides and sulfonates can also undergo such a reaction smoothly. Notably, realized the catalytic electrochem. carboxylation of aryl (pseudo)halides with CO2 avoiding the use of sacrificial electrodes. Moreover, this sustainable and economic strategy with electron as the clean reductant features mild conditions, inexpensive catalyst, safe and cheap electrodes, good functional group tolerance and broad substrate scope. Mechanistic investigations indicated that the reaction might proceed via oxidative addition of aryl halides to Ni(0) complex, the reduction of aryl-Ni(II) adduct to the Ni(I) species and following carboxylation with CO2.3-(Methoxycarbonyl)benzoic acid(cas: 1877-71-0SDS of cas: 1877-71-0) was used in this study.
3-(Methoxycarbonyl)benzoic acid(cas: 1877-71-0) belongs to esters. They are important in biology, being one of the main classes of lipids and comprising the bulk of animal fats and vegetable oils.SDS of cas: 1877-71-0 They perform as high-grade solvents for a broad array of plastics, plasticizers, resins, and lacquers, and are one of the largest classes of synthetic lubricants on the commercial market. Polyesters are important plastics, with monomers linked by ester moieties.
