A tricarbonyl rhenium(i) complex with a pendant pyrrolidinium moiety as a robust and recyclable catalyst for chemical fixation of carbon dioxide in ionic liquid

Abstract

A novel Re(I) complex covalently anchored with a pyrrolidinium moiety was successfully synthesized and used as an efficient and recyclable catalyst in the cycloaddition of CO2 with epoxides under mild reaction conditions to give excellent isolated yield and selectivity of cyclic carbonates in pyrrolidinium ionic liquid.
