چکیده

Levulinic acid (LA) is transformed into pyrrolidinones via iridium-catalysed reductive amination using formic acid as the hydrogen source under aqueous conditions. The catalytic system is the most active and performs under the mildest conditions ever reported for the reductive amination of LA.

Carbon dioxide (CO2), an economical, safe, environmentally friendly, and renewable carbon source, is an ideal one-carbon building block for organic chemicals, including carbohydrates and fuels. However, its thermodynamic and kinetic stability presents a fundamental obstacle to the use of CO2 in both academia and industry. High-energy reagents, harsh reaction conditions, and special activation m...
