Novel iron(iii) catalyst for the efficient and selective coupling of carbon dioxide and epoxides to form cyclic carbonates

Abstract

Re-cycling carbon dioxide with iron”. The synthesis of cyclic organic carbonates in high yield, stereo- and chemo-selectivity was accomplished through the coupling of carbon dioxide and epoxides, catalysed by a novel air-stable and easy-to-handle thioether-triphenolate iron(III) complex.
