Herstellung von Cyclocarbonaten

摘要

Preparation of 4,4-disubstituted 5-methylene-1,3-dioxolan-2-one derivatives of formula (I) involves reaction of the corresponding 3,3-disubstituted prop-1-yn-3-ol of formula (II) with carbon dioxide in the presence of a quaternary ammonium salt or a phosphonium salt as catalyst. The novelty is that a silver salt is used as co-catalyst. R1,R2 = saturated or olefinic unsaturated aliphatic group or aromatic group; or R1+ R2 = (CH2)4 or (CH2)5.
