Chiral (salen)Coiiicatalyst for the synthesis of cyclic carbonates

Abstract

A catalyst system comprised of a CoIII(salen) complex and a Lewis base is investigated for the reaction of CO2 and a variety of epoxides to form cyclic carbonates. Application of this catalyst system in the kinetic resolution of propylene oxide is also discussed.
