Three disilanes, (CH3)3SiSi(CH3)3, Cl(CH3)2SiSi(CH3)2Cl, and Cl2(CH3)SiSi(CH3)Cl2, all representing components of the Direct Process residue for the industrial synthesis of chloromethylsilanes, were evaluated for their abilities to reduce carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide upon treatment with fluoride salts. In particular, Cl(CH3)2SiSi(CH3)2Cl proved to be highly efficient upon the use of stoichiometric amounts of potassium bifluoride. DFT calculations performed on the reduction steps with (CH3)3SiSi(CH3)3 and fluorinated analogues of this disilane suggest that the previously proposed pathway involving an intermediate silacarboxylic acid is plausible.

The stimulation of carbon dioxide reduction to methane by addition of 2-(methylthio)ethanesulfonate (CH3-S-CoM) to cell extracts of Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum was investigated. Similar stimulation of CO2 reduction by CH3-S-CoM was found for cell extracts of Methanobacterium bryantii and Methanospirillum hungatei. The CH3-S-CoM requirement could be met by the methanogenic precursors formaldehyde, serine, or pyruvate, or by 2-(ethylthio)ethanesulfonate (CH3CH2-S-CoM), but not by other coenzyme M derivatives. Efficient reduction of CO2 to CH4 was favored by low concentrations of CH3-S-CoM and high concentrations of CO2. Sulfhydryl compounds were identified as effective inhibitors of CO2 reduction. Both an allosteric model and a free-radical model for the mechanism of CO2 activation and reduction are discussed.

A pyrazole–based ligand substituted with terpyridine groups at the 3 and 5positions has been synthesized to form the dinuclear cobalt complex 1, that electrocatalytically reduces carbon dioxide (CO2) to carbon monoxide (CO) in the presence of Brønsted acids in DMF. Chemical, electrochemical and UV–vis spectro–electrochemical studies under inert atmosphere indicate a single 2 electron reduction process of complex 1 at first, followed by a 1 electron reduction at the ligand. Infrared spectro–electrochemical studies under CO2 and CO atmosphere allowed us to identify a reduced CO–containing dicobalt complex which results from the electroreduction of CO2. In the presence of trifluoroethanol (TFE), electrocatalytic studies revealed single–site mechanism with up to 94 % selectivity towards CO formation when 1.47 M TFE were present, at –1.35 V vs Saturated Calomel Electrode in DMF (0.39 V overpotential). The low faradaic efficiencies obtained (<50%) are attributed to the generation of CO–containing species formed during the electrocatalytic process, which inhibit the reduction of CO2.
