AI Article Synopsis
- Two new bifunctional covalent organic polymers (COP-Co and COP-Zn) are developed using chlorhexidine as a foundation to act as catalysts for converting carbon dioxide (CO).
- These polymers utilize chlorhexidine's Cl nucleophile and cobalt/zinc Lewis acid sites to facilitate the conversion process.
- The reaction can occur under mild conditions without needing an additional co-catalyst, successfully transforming CO and epoxides into cyclic carbonates.
Article Abstract
Two new cobalt/zinc-coordinated bifunctional covalent organic polymers (COP-Co and COP-Zn) based on chlorhexidine are prepared as heterogeneous catalysts for carbon dioxide (CO) conversion. Due to the Cl nucleophile and cobalt/zinc Lewis acid sites, COP-Co and COP-Zn can efficiently convert CO and epoxides into cyclic carbonates under mild conditions without a co-catalyst.
