Due to the serious ecological problems caused by the high CO2 content in the atmosphere, reducing atmospheric CO2 has attracted widespread attention from academia and governments. Among the many ways to mitigate CO2 concentration, the capture and comprehensive utilization of CO2 through chemical methods have obvious advantages, whose key is to develop suitable adsorbents and catalysts. Frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) are known to bind CO2 through the interaction between unquenched Lewis acid sites/Lewis base sites with the O/C of CO2, simultaneously achieving CO2 capture and activation, which render FLP better potential for CO2 utilization. However, how to construct efficient FLP targeted for CO2 utilization and the mechanism of CO2 activation have not been systematically reported. This review firstly provides a comprehensive summary of the recent advances in the field of CO2 capture, activation, and transformation with the help of FLP, including the construction of homogeneous and heterogeneous FLPs, their interaction with CO2, reaction activity, and mechanism study. We also illustrated the challenges and opportunities faced in this field to shed light on the prospective research.

用于 CO2 活化和转化的均质和异质受阻路易斯对

由于大气中CO2含量高造成的严重生态问题，减少大气CO2已引起学术界和政府的广泛关注。在众多降低CO2浓度的方法中，化学方法捕集和综合利用CO2具有明显的优势，其关键是开发合适的吸附剂和催化剂。受抑路易斯对（FLP）已知通过未猝灭的路易斯酸位点/路易斯碱位点与CO2的O/C之间的相互作用来结合CO2，同时实现CO2捕获和活化，这使得FLP具有更好的CO2利用潜力。然而，如何构建高效的CO2利用FLP以及CO2活化机制尚未有系统报道。本文首先全面总结了利用FLP捕获、活化和转化CO2领域的最新进展，包括同质和异质FLP的构建、它们与CO2的相互作用、反应活性和机理研究。我们还阐述了该领域面临的挑战和机遇，以阐明前瞻性研究。
