Oxidative carboxylation of olefins with CO<sub>2</sub>: environmentally benign access to five-membered cyclic carbonates
Liang Wang, Sisi Que, Ziwei Ding, Esmail Vessally
Abstract
oxidative carboxylation of the corresponding olefins and carbon dioxide with particular attention on the mechanistic features of the reactions. The review is divided into two main sections. The first section is a discussion of the single-step reactions, while the second consists of an overview of one-pot, two-step sequential reactions.
