Water-in-Supercritical CO2Microemulsion Stabilized by a Metal Complex.
Herein we propose for the first time the utilization of a metal complex for forming water-in-supercritical CO2(scCO2) microemulsions. The water solubility in the metal-complex-stabilized microemulsion is significantly improved compared with the conventional water-in-scCO2microemulsions stabilized by hydrocarbons. Such a microemulsion provides a promising route for the in situ CO2reduction catalyzed by a metal complex at the water/scCO2interface.
