Ammonium zincates as suitable catalyst for the room temperature cycloaddition of CO2 to epoxides

We have recently shown that simple ammonium ferrates are competent catalyst for the cycloaddition reaction of CO2 to epoxides under moderate reaction conditions (T = 100°C, P(CO2) = 0.8 MPa). We report here that ammonium zincates of general formulae [TBA]2 [ZnX4] (TBA = tetrabutylammonium), simply o...
