In-Depth Information
chelation technique may be applied to recycle rare metals from used goods. Organosu-
perbases with strong basicity could be potential candidates for these purposes.
As discussed in Chapter 4 (Oxazolidinone and Oxazole), guanidines catalyze the
insertion of carbon dioxide (CO
2
) to alkynic bonds [22]. This behaviour may give a hint
to trapping CO
2
by organobase catalyzed chemical reaction, even to necessarymodification
of reaction conditions. Hopefully, it is the ideal that the CO
2
-incorporated products could be
used as new energy sources.
