Synthesis of Chiral Cyclic Carbonates via Kinetic Resolution of Racemic Epoxides and Carbon Dioxide
نویسندگان
چکیده
The catalytic synthesis of cyclic carbonates using carbon dioxide as a C1-building block is a highly active area of research. Here, we review the catalytic production of enantiomerically enriched cyclic carbonates via kinetic resolution of racemic epoxides catalysed by metal-containing catalyst systems.

Chiral (salen)Co(III) catalyst for the synthesis of cyclic carbonates.
A catalyst system comprised of a Co(III)(salen) complex and a Lewis base is investigated for the reaction of CO2 and a variety of epoxides to form cyclic carbonates. Application of this catalyst system in the kinetic resolution of propylene oxide is also discussed.
متن کاملSynthesis of Cyclic Carbonates Catalysed by Aluminium Heteroscorpionate Complexes.
New aluminium scorpionate based complexes have been prepared and used for the synthesis of cyclic carbonates from epoxides and carbon dioxide. Bimetallic aluminium(heteroscorpionate) complexes 9-14 were synthesised in very high yields. The single-crystal X-ray structures of 12 and 13 confirm an asymmetric κ(2)-NO-μ-O arrangement in a dinuclear molecular disposition. These bimetallic aluminium c...
متن کاملSynthesis of cyclic carbonates from epoxides and carbon dioxide using bimetallic aluminium(salen) complexes
Over the last six years, highly active catalysts for the synthesis of cyclic carbonates from epoxides and carbon dioxide have been developed. Initial studies showed that bimetallic aluminium(salen) complexes [Al(salen)]2O formed active catalysts and kinetic studies allowed the catalytic cycle to be determined. The catalysts could be immobilized on silica, allowing them to be used in a gas phase...
متن کاملCatalytic Processes for Chemical Conversion of Carbon Dioxide into Cyclic Carbonates and Polycarbonates
Chemical fixation of CO2 has received much attention because CO2 is the most inexpensive and renewable carbon resource from the viewpoint of green chemistry and atom economy. The kinetic and thermodynamic stability of CO2 molecule presents significant challenges in designing efficient chemical transformations based on this potential feedstock. Currently, cyclic carbonates and polycarbonates are...
متن کاملA bifunctional catalyst for carbon dioxide fixation: cooperative double activation of epoxides for the synthesis of cyclic carbonates.
We have developed a very active bifunctional porphyrin catalyst showing a high turnover number (TON = 103,000) for the synthesis of cyclic carbonates from CO(2) and epoxides under solvent-free conditions.
