A process, composition, and apparatus for carbon dioxide (CO) conversion are disclosed. The COconversion comprises reacting COwith a cyclopropenimine (CPI) to activate the COand transferring the activated COto generate a product of the transferring. The transferring also generates a conjugate acid of the CPI. The process further comprises regenerating the CPI from the conjugate acid.

Cyclopropenimines for activation of carbon dioxide

A process, apparatus, and cyclopropenimine (CPI) material for generating metal carbonates are disclosed. Generating the metal carbonates comprises reacting carbon dioxide (CO) with CPI. Generating the metal carbonates also comprises forming a reaction mixture comprising water, metal cations, and a product of the reacting.

Cyclopropenimines for mineralization of carbon dioxide

A process, apparatus, and material for generating polymers are disclosed. Generating the polymers comprises reacting carbon dioxide (CO) with a cyclopropenimine (CPI). Generating the polymers further comprises reacting monomers with a product of the reaction between the CPI and the CO.
