Abstract: The commonly accepted mechanism of CO2 fixation of epoxides to cyclic carbonates catalyzed by multifunctional non-halide organocatalysts is challenged by our computational DFT-D3 study, which revealed a new polymerization-like mechanism comprising alternate epoxide and CO2… read more here.
