Oxazolidinones and α-hydroxyl ketones are two series of fine chemicals that have been generally utilized in biological, pharmaceutical, and synthetic chemistry. Herein, a AgNO3/ionic liquid (IL) catalytic system was developed for the simultaneous synthesis of these compounds through the atom-economical three-component reactions of propargyl alcohols, 2-aminoethanols, and CO2. Notably, this system behaved excellent catalytic activity with the lowermost metal loading of 0.25 mol%. Meanwhile, it is the first reported metal-catalyzed system that could efficiently work under atmospheric CO2 pressure and be recycled at least five times. Evaluation of the green metrics proved the AgNO3/IL-catalyzed processes to be relatively more sustainable and greener than the other Ag-catalyzed examples. Further mechanistic investigations revealed the derivative active species of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) silver complexes and CO2 adducts generated during the process. Subsequently, their reactivity in this reaction was assessed for the first time, which was finally identified as beneficial for the catalytic activity.

The use of γ-Al2O3 as a heterogeneous catalyst in scCO2 has been successfully applied to the amination of alcohols for the synthesis of N-alkylated heterocycles. The optimal reaction conditions (temperature and substrate flow rate) were determined using an automated self-optimising reactor, resulting in moderate to high yields of the target products. Carrying out the reaction in scCO2 was shown to be beneficial, as higher yields were obtained in the presence of CO2 than in its absence. A surprising discovery is that, in addition to cyclic amines, cyclic ureas and urethanes could be synthesised by incorporation of CO2 from the supercritical solvent into the product.

Development of catalytic routes to incorporate CO2 into carbonyl compounds at mild conditions remains attractive and challenging. Herein, a one-pot three-component cascade reaction of terminal propargylic alcohols, CO2, and 2-aminoethanols through AgI-based catalysis is reported for the synthesis of carbonyl compounds through C—O/C—N bond formation. This thermodynamically favorable route can be ingeniously regulated to afford a wide range of 2-oxazolidinones along with concurrent production of α-hydroxyl ketone derivatives in excellent yields and selectivity. Preliminary mechanistic studies indicate that such a process proceeds through successive formation of α-alkylidene cyclic carbonate, β-oxopropylcarbamate, and 2-oxazolidinones.
