Highly Active, Binary Catalyst Systems for the Alternating Copolymerization of CO2 and Epoxides under Mild Conditions

Year: 2004

Type: article

Abstract: Excellent activity and selectivity in the copolymerization of CO2 with epoxides at extremely mild temperature and pressure are observed in the presence of binary nucleophile–electrophile catalyst systems based on chiral [(salcy)CoIIIX] complexes and quaternary ammonium salts (see scheme). Completely alternating copolymers are obtained with >95 % head-to-tail linkages.
