Nickel hydride with a diphosphinite-based ligand catalyzes the highly efficient reduction of CO(2) with catecholborane, and the hydrolysis of the resulting methoxyboryl species produces CH(3)OH in good yield. The mechanism involves a nickel formate, formaldehyde, and a nickel methoxide as different reduced stages for CO(2). The reaction may also be catalyzed by an air-stable nickel formate.
