We describe herein an efficient organocatalytic system for the selective N-methylation and N-formylation of amines with carbon dioxide (CO2) as a sustainable C1 feedstock and polymethylhydrosiloxane (PMHS) as a cost-effectvie reducing reagent. High-yielding N-methylation products are obtained with low catalyst loading (1%) of DBU. Selective N-formylation of amines is achieved using the same catalytic system at a lower reaction temperature. (Figure presented.).

The synthesis and characterization of imidazol(in)ium-based zinc(II) halide salts are reported. These compounds present interesting structural features and exhibit high stability. Their catalytic activity was explored in the methylation of amines with CO2 and PhSiH3.

A simple and convergent synthetic strategy used to increase the diversity of the carbodicarbene ligand framework through incorporation of unsymmetrical pendant groups is reported. Structural analysis and spectroscopic studies of ligands and their Rh complexes are reported. Reactivity studies reveal carbodicarbenes as competent organocatalysts for amine methylation using CO2 as a synthon. A unique B-H-activated boron-carbodicarbene complex was isolated as a reaction intermediate, providing mechanistic insight into the CO2 functionalization process.
