Synthesis of cyclic carbonates from diols and CO2 catalyzed by carbenes

Paul Joseph Dyson, Felix Daniel Bobbink, Shoubhik Das, Martin Hulla, Weronika Gruszka

The synthesis of cyclic carbonates from epoxides and CO2 is a well-established reaction, whereas the synthesis of cyclic carbonates from diols and CO2 is considerably more challenging, and few efficient catalysts are available. Here, we describe heterocycl ...
