Fig. S1 1H NMR spectra of the reaction of CO2 and PMHS in the presence of Pd(DPPP)Cl2. (A) pure PMHS
in CDCl3; (B) reaction mixture after the reaction of CO2 with PMHS catalyzed by Pd(DPPP)Cl2. Reaction condition:
CO2 (1 MPa), PMHS (Si-H: 15mmol) and Pd(DPPP)Cl2 (30 mg) in DMF, 100oC, 15h. 0.5 mL of CDCl3 solution
of the reaction mixture was transferred into the NMR tube. The spectrum showed the signal of pure PMHS (▲) and
the formation of silyl formate (◆). Two large signals at 2.7 ppm and 7.9 ppm are for DMF solvent (✿).
