Abstract

Bio-renewables are emerging as potential materials for CO2 sorption. Epinephrine is employed as a green scrubbing agent for CO2 capturing through the formation of a metal carbamate as proved by 1H, 13C and 1H-15N NMR and ex situ ATR-FTIR spectroscopy, as well as supported by quantum-chemical calculations.
