Abstract
This thesis describes the development, the construction and the functionality of a flexible automated reaction set-up for the semi continuous homogeneously catalyzed hydrogenation of CO$_{2}$ and organic carbonates in multiphase systems. The conversion of CO$_{2}$ to [FA·amine] adducts (FA = formic acid) using the set up is demonstrated. Additionally, the downstream process of the product by functionalization with methanol (MeOH) to methyl formate (MF) is presented. Finally, the hydrogenation of organic carbonates to MeOH is studied and possible process strategies are discussed.
