Abstract
The traditional economy based on carbon-intensive fuels and materials has led to an exponential rise in anthropogenic CO2 emissions. Outpacing the natural carbon cycle, atmospheric CO2 levels increased by 50 % since the pre-industrial age and can be directly linked to global warming. Being at the core of the proposed methanol economy pioneered by the late George A. Olah, the chemical recycling of CO2 to produce methanol, a green fuel and feedstock, is a prime channel to achieve carbon neutrality. In this direction, homogeneous catalytic systems have lately been a major focus for methanol synthesis from CO2 , CO and their derivatives as potential low-temperature alternatives to the commercial processes. This Review provides an account of this rapidly growing field over the past decade, since its resurgence in 2011. Based on the critical assessment of the progress thus far, the present key challenges in this field have been highlighted and potential directions have been suggested for practically viable applications.

Abstract
Alcohol-assisted hydrogenation of carbon monoxide (CO) to methanol was achieved using homogeneous molecular complexes. The molecular manganese complex [Mn(CO)2Br[HN(C2H4P i Pr2)2]] ([HN(C2H4P i Pr2)2] = MACHO- i Pr) revealed the best performance, reaching up to turnover number = 4023 and turnover frequency 857 h-1 in EtOH/toluene as solvent under optimized conditions (T = 150 °C, p(CO/H2) = 5/50 bar, t = 8-12 h). Control experiments affirmed that the reaction proceeds via formate ester as the intermediate, whereby a catalytic amount of base was found to be sufficient to mediate its formation from CO and the alcohol in situ. Selectivity for methanol formation reached >99% with no accumulation of the formate ester. The reaction was demonstrated to work with methanol as the alcohol component, resulting in a reactive system that allows catalytic "breeding" of methanol without any coreagents.

Abstract
Methanol synthesis from syngas (CO/H2 mixtures) is one of the largest manmade chemical processes with annual production reaching 100 million tons. The current industrial method proceeds at high temperatures (200-300 °C) and pressures (50-100 atm) using a copper-zinc-based heterogeneous catalyst. In contrast, here, we report a molecularly defined manganese catalyst that allows for low-temperature/low-pressure (120-150 °C, 50 bar) carbon monoxide hydrogenation to methanol. This new approach was evaluated and optimized by quantum mechanical simulations virtual high-throughput screenings. Crucial for this achievement is the use of amine-based promoters, which capture carbon monoxide to give formamide intermediates, which then undergo manganese-catalyzed hydrogenolysis, regenerating the promoter. Following this conceptually new approach, high selectivity toward methanol and catalyst turnover numbers (up to 3170) was achieved. The proposed general catalytic cycle for methanol synthesis is supported by model studies and detailed spectroscopic investigations.

Abstract
Nickel complexes promoted by alkoxide bases can affect facile conversion of synthesis gas into methanol under thermodynamically favorable temperatures. At 100°C, syngas conversion of 99% with turnover frequency of 66 h-1 is reported. The reaction is truly catalytic in Ni as well as in base. A kinetic study of the Ni(CO)4-KOMe catalyst system in 1,2-bis(2-methoxy ethoxy)ethane (triglyme)-MeOH solvent mixture is presented. The kinetic expression includes terms of zero-order in H2 and first-order in CO with syngas of H2-CO stoichiometry of ~2:1 and less than first-order in Ni (0.03-0.10 M), ~third-order in base (2.0-4.75 M), and an exponential dependence on methanol concentration (13.0-23.7 M at 2.0 M base; 15.8-22.6 M at 3.0 M base). The activation energy of 42.2 kJ mol-1 was estimated from the Arrhenius plot of the data between 374 and 393 K. Gas phase IR spectrum at the end of each run showed an intense signature peak at 2060 cm-1 for Ni(CO)4. Process uncertainties to commercialization of this versatile homogenous catalyst system for CO hydrogenation to methanol are discussed.Key words: homogeneous catalysis, syngas conversion, methanol synthesis, alkoxides, carbonyls of nickel.
