Nickel‐catalyzed electrochemical carboxylation of epoxides: mechanistic aspects

Aspects of carbon dioxide utilization

“…It actually allows one to avoid fighting the equilibrium in the direct synthesis of dimethyl carbonate from carbon dioxide and methyl alcohol [110]. Many catalysts have been investigated for the reaction of carbon dioxide with various kinds of oxiranes as shown in Table 6 [118][119][120][121][122][123][124][125][126][127][128].…”

Development in the green synthesis of cyclic carbonate from carbon dioxide using ionic liquids

“…However, activity, stability and recovery of catalysts still remain to be improved. Besides the catalytic reaction of CO 2 and epoxide, electrochemical synthesis of cyclic carbonate from them is also possible, although there are only a few papers on this reaction [33,34].…”

Ionic Liquids in Green Carbonate Synthesis

“…Electrochemical synthesis of cyclic carbonates from CO 2 with epoxides, anilines, alcohols, and glycols was reported [53][54][55][56][57][58][59][60]. For example, Duñach et al [54] conducted the reaction of epoxides with CO 2 to the corresponding cyclic carbonates by an electrochemical method in the presence of nickel(II) complexes.…”
