Abstract

Traditionalamine absorbents for CO2are oftentimes corrosive to equipment and degrade through oxidation, thus severely restricting the wide application in CO2capture. Herein, asupramolecular approach to CO2capture by cucurbit [7] uril (CB [7]) complex was developed. NH2 (CH2)6NH2 CB [7] complex can convert CO2 to bicarbonate product. Furthermore, the CB[7] complex can be reused to absorb CO2 over 5 times in solid state, thereby providing a green absorbent to CO2 with regard to high stability, non-corrosiveness and convenient transportation.
