In this talk, I will present some of our latest work on palladium-catalyzed carbonylation reactions with specific focus on the use of CO releasing molecules (CORMs) in combination with a two-chamber reactor, which provides a convenient and simple set-up for performing such reactions without having to consider the hazards associated with the use of this toxic diatomic molecule. The talk will cover some of our recent developments including a) new Pd-catalyzed carbonylation reactions, b) new reagents for the selective reduction of carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide and subsequent applications in carbonylation chemistry, and c) organometallic palladium complexes for PET applications with <sup>11</sup>C-carbon labeled carbon monoxide.
