The present chapter comprises an overview on catalytic pathways to synthesize a highly desired variety of common compounds/chemicals starting from carbon dioxide as C1 building block and simple alkenes. After a summary of the corresponding pioneering work of the past, the authors focus on state-of-the-art protocols. New transformations based on simple and non-activated starting materials containing a C–C double bond functionality leading to a broad product portfolio are covered. Overall, this chapter embraces sustainable routes, reagents, and apparatus to produce value-added products starting from CO 2 and alkenes as cheap and readily available building blocks.
