This content is a preprint and has not undergone peer review at the time of posting.

Abstract

We report the facile (25 oC, 1 atm, <5 minutes) insertion of CO2 into Bi-N bonds to yield rare examples of bismuth carbamates, whose structures show a μ2-bridging mode that is hitherto unobserved in s, p, or f-block amide chemistry. The role of ligand and substituent on promoting the controlled aminobismuthination of CO2 and rendering the bismuth carbamate products stable against thermal decomposition and ligand degradation is revealed.
