Reactive Applications of Cyclic Alkylene Carbonates
نویسنده
چکیده
The synthesis and use of cyclic alkylene carbonates as reactive intermediates first appeared in the literature more than 50 years ago. However, the range of their usefulness in industrial applications has only been fully realized in the past decade. In this article, numerous reactive applications of the cyclic alkylene carbonates, specifically the five-membered cyclics, are discussed. In addition, utilization of the chemistry presented in this review for the preparation of industrially useful monomers, polymers, surfactants, plasticizers, cross-linking agents, curing agents, and solvents, to name a few, is also discussed.

Ionic liquids as transesterification catalysts: applications for the synthesis of linear and cyclic organic carbonates
The use of ionic liquids (ILs) as organocatalysts is reviewed for transesterification reactions, specifically for the conversion of nontoxic compounds such as dialkyl carbonates to both linear mono-transesterification products or alkylene carbonates. An introductory survey compares pros and cons of classic catalysts based on both acidic and basic systems, to ionic liquids. Then, innovative gree...
متن کاملSynthesis and characterization of polycarbonates by melt phase interchange reactions of alkylene and arylene diacetates with alkylene and arylene diphenyl dicarbonates.
This work presents a new synthetic approach to aromatic and aliphatic polycarbonates by melt polycondensation of bisphenol A diacetates with alkylene- and arylenediphenyl dicarbonates. The diphenyl dicarbonates were prepared from phenyl chloroformate and the corresponding dihydroxy compounds. The process involved a precondensation step under a slow stream of dry argon with the elimination of ph...
متن کاملConvenient preparation of fatty ester cyclic carbonates
The cyclic carbonate moiety finds many industrial applications because of its unique chemistry and properties. Phosgene, a highly toxic and corrosive reagent, has been utilized in the past to prepare low yields of fatty ester compounds (1) that contain a five-membered cyclic carbonate group. Herein, we show (CH3)4N HCO3, tetramethylammonium hydrogen carbonate (TMAHC), to react efficiently with ...

Based on the mechanism postulated for the formation of the cyclic carbonates 3 in the reactions of glycols 1 with oxalyl chloride in the presence of triethylamine, we present here three efficient syntheses of the cyclic oxalates 2 of various glycols 1 by controlling the formation of 3: replacement of the base by pyridine markedly diminishes yields of 3 in all reactions, realizing dramatic rever...
