What's new with CO2? Recent advances in its copolymerization with oxiranes

Abstract

The present review highlights recent advances in the copolymerization of carbon dioxide (CO2) and epoxides (oxiranes) to produce polycarbonates with specific regard for catalysts designed to afford high selectivity for copolymer versus cyclic carbonate formation.
