Article abstract of DOI:10.1039/CC9960001497

Hybrid materials derived from group VIII metal-chloro complexes of the type MCl₂X₂ (M = Pt, Pd), MClX₃ (M = Rh, Ir) and especially RuCl₂X₃ [X = Ph₂P(CH₂)₂Si(OEt)₃, Me₂P(CH₂)₂Si(OEt)₃] by cocondensation with Si(OEt)₄ via a sol-gel process are highly active heterogeneous catalysts for the synthesis of N,N-dimethylformamide (dmf) from CO₂, H₂ and dimethylamine under supercritical conditions, affording turnover numbers up to 110 800 at 100% selectivity.
