Abstract:
Disclosed are composite compositions, comprising a conductive matrix and an electrochemically active polymer, which are useful as heterogeneous catalysts or charge-storage materials. Suitable electrochemically active polymers include redox polymers, such as polyvinylferrocene, and conducting polymers, such as polypyrrole, and interpenetrating networks containing both redox polymers and conducting polymers.
Abstract:
Described herein are inventive methods for synthesis of cyclic carbonates from CO2 and epoxide. In some embodiments, the methods are carried out in the presence of a catalyst comprising an electrophilic halogen. In some embodiments, the methods are carried out in a flow reactor.
