We have employed computational methods to investigate how LAs affect CO<sub>2<\/sub>\u00a0hydrogenation with a range of known metal-hydrides (L<sub>n<\/sub>Ir\u2013H, L<sub>n<\/sub>Ru\u2013H, L<sub>n<\/sub>Mn\u2013H, L<sub>n<\/sub>Co\u2013H). Our results show that LAs can alter the nature of the hydride\u2013CO<sub>2<\/sub>\u00a0bond formation step, but do not lower its barrier. Instead, the accelerating effect of LAs is on the subsequent step, the rearrangement of the metal-formate \u03c3-intermediate. These insights are essential for understanding the effect of LA additives on metal-mediated hydrogenations of CO<sub>2<\/sub>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Find a list of publications by\u00a0NordCO<sub>2<\/sub>\u00a0members on our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/nordco2\/publications\/\">Publications<\/a>\u00a0page\u00a0\ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Title:Understanding the Influence of Lewis Acids on CO2\u00a0Hydrogenation: The Critical Effect Is on Formate Rotation Abstract:Lewis acids (LAs) have been shown to accelerate hydrogenation of &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":514,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"image","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2988","post","type-post","status-publish","format-image","hentry","category-research","post_format-post-format-image"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/nordco2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2988","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/nordco2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/nordco2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/nordco2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/514"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/nordco2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2988"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/nordco2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2988\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2989,"href":"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/nordco2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2988\/revisions\/2989"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/nordco2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2988"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/nordco2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2988"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/nordco2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2988"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
