Gas-phase heterogeneous catalytic CO 2 hydrogenation to commodity chemicals and fuels via surface frustrated Lewis pairs is a growing focus of scientific and technological interest. Traditional gas-phase heterogeneous surface frustrated Lewis pair catalysts primarily involve metal oxide-hydroxides (...
