Abstract

A series of polyethylene glycol (PEG)-functionalized ionic liquids (ILs) were developed as recyclable and efficient catalysts for selective synthesis of 5-aryl-2-oxazolidinones from aziridines and CO2 without addition of any organic solvents or additives. In particular, high yields, chemo-and regio-selectivities of oxazolidinones were attained when BrDBNPEG150DBNBr (DBN: 1, 5-diazabicyclo [4.3. 0] non-5-ene) was used as the ...
