Abstract

(Chemical Equation Presented) Low-pressure catalyst: A novel dizinc complex (1) having a macrocyclic ancillary ligand shows remarkable activity for the copolymerization of carbon dioxide and cyclohexene oxide, at only one atmosphere of CO2. TON=turnover number; TOF=turnover frequency. 2009 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
