Metal porphyrin/phenyltrimethylammonium tribromide: High efficient catalysts for coupling reaction of CO2 and epoxides

Novel and high efficient catalysts of metal porphyrin (M(TPP)X, M = Co, Fe, Ru, Mn; X = Cl−, Br−, OAc−, OTs−, Cl3CCO2−)/phenyltrimethylammonium tribromide (PTAT) were developed to catalyze the coupling reaction of carbon dioxide and epoxides at room temperature.
