Abstract:

The sustainable approaches for the synthesis of value-added fine and bulk chemicals using viable raw materials and feed stock has been accepted as a collective knowledge by our society. From the aspect of organic syntheses, the development of chemical reactions, with high atom efficiency is the main targets. In this respect, carbon dioxide is considered as a valuable C1 building block due to its abundance, low toxicity and recyclability. To create essential C-C bonds from CO2 using traditional synthetic methodologies, the use of strong carbon nucleophiles is necessary, which also generate stoichiometric amounts of by-products. In contrast, the catalytic telomerization of 1,3-butadiene with carbon dioxide leads to the unsaturated ���´-lactone (3-ethylidene-6-vinyltetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-one) under mild conditions in a 100% atom-efficient manner. Herein, we report our finding on improved palladium catalyst systems for the telomerization of 1,3-butadiene with carbon dioxide and also report the first related reactions with 1,2-butadiene.
