Recent Advances in the Chemical Fixation of Carbon Dioxide: A Green Route to Carbonylated Heterocycle Synthesis

Carbon dioxide produced by human activities is one of the main contributions responsible for the greenhouse effect, which is modifying the Earth&#8217;s climate. Therefore, post-combustion CO<sub>2</sub> capture and its conversion into high value-added chemicals are integral parts of...
