Hydroxyl- and carboxyl-functionalized imidazolium halides are used as efficient bifunctional organocatalysts for the synthesis of cyclic carbonates from CO2 and epoxides under mild reaction conditions. Control experiments suggest that the cycloaddition reaction is realized by the combination of the nucleophilic halide anions with hydroxyl and carboxyl groups as hydrogen bond donors. Moreover, the bifunctional organocatalysts can be easily recycled five times by simple filtration; however, a loss of activity was observed.

Two new one-component aluminium-based catalysts for the reaction between epoxides and carbon dioxide have been prepared. The catalysts are composed of aluminium–salen chloride complexes with trialkylammonium groups directly attached to the aromatic rings of the salen ligand. With terminal epoxides, the catalysts induced the formation of cyclic carbonates under mild reaction conditions (25–35 °C; 1–10 bar carbon dioxide pressure). However, with cyclohexene oxide under the same reaction conditions, the same catalysts induced the formation of polycarbonate. The catalysts could be recovered from the reaction mixture and reused.
