Abstract

Zn<sup>II</sup>[2-N(CH<sub>2</sub>)<sub>5</sub>N<sup>+</sup>(CH<sub>3</sub>)<sub>3</sub>Br<sup>−</sup>NCTPP] is a bifunctional catalyst that exhibits efficiency for CO<sub>2</sub> fixation with epoxides with TOF up to 370 000 h<sup>−1</sup> and TON 1.3 × 10<sup>6</sup>. It can also be recycled for the formation of glycerol carbonate from CO<sub>2</sub> and glycidol.
