Abstract
The radical anion CO is formed by photochemical reduction of CO2 mediated by the redox-active Ni3 cluster 1, as shown recently by Kubiak et al. The CO radical ion can be trapped with cyclohexene to yield cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid with the formation of two new CC bonds. This reaction is an important step towards the use of CO2 as a building block for chemical synthesis in solution.
