Abstract

This contribution highlights recent developments from our research efforts at the Max-Planck-Institute for Coal Research concerning the use of compressed (liquid or supercritical) carbon dioxide as a solvent for environmentally friendly synthesis of fine chemicals. Representative examples discussed here include steel-promoted epoxidation using molecular oxygen as the primary oxidant and transition-metal-catalysed asymmetric C-C bond forming reactions.
