Abstract
A novel, efficient synthesis of cyclic carbonates from the reaction of epoxides and gaseous CO2 under mild conditions (1 atm, rt to 45 °C) was achieved in reasonable yields (65–83%) by using N-methyltetrahydropyrimidine (MTHP) that facilitated efficient delivery of CO2 from the gas phase to the reaction system.This publication has 51 references indexed in Scilit:
