Abstract

The incorporation of CO2 into substrates containing alcohol or amine functional groups displays interesting substrate-controlled reactivity, both in terms of providing milder reaction conditions and the potential towards new reactivity modes. Various heterocyclic structures can be prepared using this substrate-driven approach starting from functional derivatives of (homo)allylic and propargylic alcohols/amines, epoxy alcohols, and hydroxy-oxetanes among others. This review summarizes the recent advances made in this area.

1 Introduction

2 Catalytic Conversion of Propargylic Alcohols

3 Catalytic Conversion of Propargylic Amines

4 Homoallylic and Allylic Alcohol Substrate Conversions

5 Transformation of Allylic Amines

6 Epoxy Alcohols/Amines as Substrates

7 Hydroxy-Substituted Oxetane and Azetidine Scaffolds

8 Conversion of Other Substrates

9 Summary and Outlook
