2-Morpholinoimidazolinomagnesium(II) complex as a novel carbon dioxide carrier
Abstract
The magnesium complex (1) has been found to undergo fixation of carbon dioxide and the resulting 1-carboxylato-complex (2) transfers the carboxylato group to active methylene compounds (3) including acetophenone, benzylideneacetone, β-ionone, and S-benzyl thioacetate, under mild conditions.
