Comparing kinetic profiles between bifunctional and binary type of Zn(salen)-based catalysts for organic carbonate formation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Zn(salen) complexes have been employed as active catalysts for the formation of cyclic carbonates from epoxides and CO2. A series of kinetic experiments was carried out to obtain information about the mechanism for this process catalyzed by these complexes and in particular about the order-dependence in catalyst. A comparative analysis was done between the binary catalyst system Zn(salphen)/NBu4I and a bifunctional system Zn(salpyr)·MeI with a built-in nucleophile. The latter system demonstrates an apparent second-order dependence on the bifunctional catalyst concentration and thus follows a different, bimetallic mechanism as opposed to the binary catalyst that is connected with a first-order dependence on the catalyst concentration and a monometallic mechanism.

Robust bifunctional aluminium–salen catalysts for the preparation of cyclic carbonates from carbon dioxide and epoxides
Two new one-component aluminium-based catalysts for the reaction between epoxides and carbon dioxide have been prepared. The catalysts are composed of aluminium-salen chloride complexes with trialkylammonium groups directly attached to the aromatic rings of the salen ligand. With terminal epoxides, the catalysts induced the formation of cyclic carbonates under mild reaction conditions (25-35 °C...

New chiral catalyst systems were developed for the reaction of carbon dioxide with propylene oxide (PO) at atmospheric pressure to generate enantiomerically enriched propylene carbonate (PC). The best selectivity was achieved with a Co(III)(salen)-trifluoroacetyl complex and bis(triphenylphosphoranylidene)ammonium fluoride (PPN+F-) as catalysts, affording PC in 40% yield and 83% ee (selectivity...
متن کاملApplication of mineral chemistry to mineralization and alteration evaluation in Zn-Pb Angouran deposit, Zanjan
Angouran zinc and lead deposit is located about 135 km west of Zanjan city, in the northwest of the Sanandaj-Sirjan structural zone The results of this study indicate that the dolomitic alteration occurred in the carbonate hanging-wall and the presence of ankerite in the schist footwall. The main host of ore deposit is metamorphic carbonate. The Angouran dolomite is secondary and hydrothermal. ...
