title: Entrapment of a chiral cobalt complex within silver: a novel heterogeneous catalyst for asymmetric carboxylation of benzyl bromides with CO2.
abstract: A novel way to accommodate heterogeneous catalysis, CO2 fixation and asymmetric synthesis on one catalyst is reported. The [Co]@Ag composite was prepared for the first time and used for asymmetric carboxylation of benzyl bromides with CO2. All the procedures were performed under mild conditions. Moreover, the [Co]@Ag composite has terrific stability and reusability.
