Synergistic Effect of BaCl2 on Corrosion Inhibition of Copper by Mentha Spicata Oil in 1M Nitric Acid: Gravimetric and Raman Spectroscopy Studies

“…[10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] Nowadays, the catalytic cycloaddition of CO 2 to different epoxides attracts considerable attentions of researcher all over the world as an efficient way for cyclic carbonates production as well as one of the best possible strategy for carbon dioxide neutralization by its fixation and recycling. [19][20][21][22][23][24][25] Nevertheless, the direct epoxidation of unsaturated compounds with chemical oxidants, e.g., organic hydroperoxides, leads to the formation of undesired by-products and is ineffective in many cases. The application of appropriate catalysts can solve the problem and improve 1 Lviv Polytechnic National University, 12, S.

Boron based intramolecular heterocyclic frustrated Lewis pairs as organocatalysts for CO2 adsorption and activation

“…Recently, the catalytic potential of a bicyclic organo‐super base DABCO and a boron based azatranes i.e. azaboratrane (AZAB) has been computationally investigated for the conversion of CO 2 into cyclic carbonates 46,47 …”

“…azaboratrane (AZAB) has been computationally investigated for the conversion of CO 2 into cyclic carbonates. 46,47 Among all the available catalytic compounds, the catalysts that can form the adducts with CO 2 arguably are the most interesting ones because they cannot only capture and store the CO 2 but can be used for further conversion into a variety of products by reacting with suitable reactant molecules. Till date, various transition metal complexes and strong organic nucleophiles like phosphine, imidazoles, pyridine derivatives and other heterocyclic compounds have been shown to form complex with CO 2.…”

Novel Insight into the Molecular Frustration of IFLPs Based on Boron-Functionalized Pyrimidines for CO2 Sequestration

“…21,33−40 Recently, a bicyclic compound from the class of azatranes (i.e., azaboratrane, AZAB) has been computationally investigated to accelerate the transformation of CO 2 into cyclic carbonates. 41,42 To enhance the selectivity and reactivity of the catalyst by modifying the electronic structure, confinements have also been considered. 43−46 Recently, cucurbit [7]uril has been theoretically investigated for catalyzing the reaction of CO 2 with epoxides and was found to be a potential nanoreactor for the same.…”

“…Over the decades, many homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts have been developed for the transformation of CO 2 . The homogeneous catalysts consist of organic bases and ionic liquids, whereas the heterogeneous catalysts mainly include metal-based complexes, metal–organic frameworks, zeolites, and combinations of metals and ionic liquids. − Also, organocatalysts have gained popularity in the last two decades due to their novelty, simplicity, and efficiency among the research communities. − To date, various organocatalysts have been investigated for CO 2 activation and conversion. ,− Recently, a bicyclic compound from the class of azatranes (i.e., azaboratrane, AZAB) has been computationally investigated to accelerate the transformation of CO 2 into cyclic carbonates. , To enhance the selectivity and reactivity of the catalyst by modifying the electronic structure, confinements have also been considered. − Recently, cucurbit[7]­uril has been theoretically investigated for catalyzing the reaction of CO 2 with epoxides and was found to be a potential nanoreactor for the same …”
