As the level of catalytic activity can be tuned by the solvent conditions, their findings could open up many new directions for converting CO 2 to industrially useful organic compounds. Silyl formate can be easily converted to formic acid, which can serve as an important hydrogen carrier, for example, in fuel cells.
