A catalytic double carboxylation of a bisboronate ester benzene was disclosed to synthesize terephthalic acid under a CO₂ utilization approach. The double carboxylation was accomplished with several other bisboronate ester arenes to provide support for this being a general transformation. The double carboxylation was conducted on a gram scale to provide terephthalic acid in 90% yield.

通过催化双羧基化合成对苯二甲酸的CO ₂利用方法

公开了双硼酸酯苯的催化双羧化在CO ₂利用方法下合成对苯二甲酸。用其他几种双硼酸酯酯的芳烃完成了双羧化反应，从而为一般的转化提供了支持。以克为单位进行两次羧化，以90％的产率提供对苯二甲酸。
