Amine-modified polyionic liquid supports enhance the efficacy of PdNPs for the catalytic hydrogenation of CO2 to formate.

Palladium nanoparticles stabilised by aniline modified polymer immobilised ionic liquid is a remarkably active catalyst for the hydrogenation of CO₂ to formate; the initial TOF of 500 h⁻¹ is markedly higher than either unmodified catalyst or its benzylamine and N,N-dimethylaniline modified counterparts and is among the highest to be reported for a PdNP-based catalyst.
