Abstract

Correction for ‘One-pot atom-efficient synthesis of bio-renewable polyesters and cyclic carbonates through tandem catalysis’ by Fan Jia et al., Chem. Commun., 2015, 51, 8504–8507.


The authors regret their oversight in not giving due prominence to the work reported by C. Thomas et al. (cited as ref. 14 of Chem. Commun., 2015, 51, 8504–8507). The authors therefore wish to add the following statement to the introduction section of their article:

“Very recently, Thomas and co-workers reported the first tandem catalytic system for the efficient synthesis of well-defined polypeptides and cyclic carbonates. This work indicated far-reaching prospects for tandem catalysis and further prompted us to explore the new tandem process for the polymerization of OCA monomers.14

The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
