Abstract

Long-chain cyclic carbonates (LC-CC) are attractive building blocks and non-ionic surfactants. We demonstrate a convenient methodology to prepare LC-CC in miniemulsions of epoxide droplets in water. The pre-organization and confinement of the reagents from H-bond and hydrophobic interactions allow the target process to proceed at mild temperatures under atmospheric CO2.
