Article Synopsis
- - Novel aluminium complexes with unique helical structures were created using large heteroscorpionate ligands, allowing for the isolation of new intermediates in their formation.
- - These helical aluminium complexes were tested for their ability to catalyze cyclic carbonate production under mild conditions, demonstrating effective performance.
- - The most effective catalyst, combining complex 16 and BuNBr, successfully produced a variety of monosubstituted and disubstituted cyclic carbonates from epoxides and carbon monoxide at room temperature.

Article Synopsis
- Nonisocyanate polyurethane materials were created by reacting bis(cyclic carbonates) with various diamines, using 1,4-butanediol bis(glycidyl ether carbonate) as the main starting material.
- The reactions yielded poly(hydroxyurethane) materials efficiently after 16 hours at 80 °C in MeCN, though L-lysine did not react due to its low reactivity; however, the use of strong bases like DBU or TBD allowed for successful reactions, albeit with some unwanted byproducts.
- Characterization of the resulting materials was conducted using various spectroscopic methods (NMR, IR, MALDI-ToF, GPC), and their thermal properties were analyzed, alongside experiments
