Sustainable synthesis of CO2-derived polycarbonates from d-xylose Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • Synthetic transformation of d-xylose into a four-membered cyclic ether allows for reactions with CO2 leading to linear polycarbonates by either ring-opening copolymerisation directly or by isolation of a six-membered cyclic carbonate followed by ring-opening polymerisation.
