Synthesis of an Epoxide Carbonylation Catalyst: Exploration of Contemporary Chemistry for Advanced Undergraduates
Getzler, Yutan D. Y. L.; Schmidt, Joseph A. R.; Coates, Geoffrey W.
Journal of Chemical Education, v82 n4 p621 Apr 2005
A class of highly active, well-defined compounds for the catalytic carbonylation of epoxides and aziridines to beta-lactones and beta-lactams are introduced. The synthesis of one of the catalysts involves a simple imine condensation to form the ligand followed by air-sensitive metalation and salt metathesis steps.
