The results show that the P1H reacts with carbon 19 dioxide activated by basic ion to form carboxylic acid compound (P1-COOH). These results provide a possible method for 20 carboxylation reactions of P1H using carbon dioxide based on vinyl carbanion as well. The complete reaction mechanism 21 cycle was described by DFT calculation as well. 22 23 synthesis via using CO 2 as the electrophile and other 24 1.

It is well known that the Accepted 37 phosphate ester and is the substrate of carbon dioxide catalyst systems like metal-containing complexes, nitrogen- 38 addition(figure 1). 16 These researches indicate that the base (e.g. frustrated amidine and guanidines) and task-specific 39 carbanion hold an efficient capture and acivation for carbon ionic liquids can activate the carbon dioxide 40 7 dioxide, and transfer carbon dioxide to efficiently. Among those catalysts, some special nitrogen- 41 carboxylic acid compound. 42 based basic precursors including N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) 8, 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) 9 and 1,5,7- 43 10-11 44 triazabicyclo[4.4.0] dec-5-ene (TBD) are able to active and react with carbon dioxide to form zwitterionic adducts under 45 Analyst CO atmosphere. Unfortunately, these base-CO adducts have 46 2 2 been proved to be extremely unstable and unobtainable in the 47 presence of ambient moisture. Strict operation condition, such 48 as the water-free and oxygen-free conditions, is necessary for 49 these reactions 12 . For example, direct carboxylation of C-H Figure 1. Suggested multistep mechanism for the carboxylation reaction catalyzed by 50 bond with carbon dioxide is an important reaction in organic rubiso. 51 52 It has been said that nature is the best teacher. As a 53 consequence, discovering a biomimetic precursor, such as 54 carbanion, which is able to directly and blandly detection, 55 capture and convert unactivated CO 2 to generate ambient 56 stable chemicals rather than zwitterionic adducts, was [16] 57 intensively desired in mild reaction condition.
