Zinc Iodide-Metal Chloride-Organic Base: An Efficient Catalytic System for Synthesis of Cyclic Carbonates from Carbon Dioxide and Epoxides under Ambient Conditions

Zinc Iodide-Metal Chloride-Organic Base: An Efficient Catalytic System for Synthesis of Cyclic Carbonates from Carbon Dioxide and Epoxides under Ambient Conditions

Development of an effective catalytic system for the cycloaddition of carbon dioxide to epoxides for the preparation of cyclic carbonates under mild conditions is of great importance. Herein, a mixture of zinc iodide, metal chlorides, and strong organic bases is demonstrated to be a useful catalytic...
