“…27 Many different catalysts have been used to effect epoxideanhydride ROCOP, including organocatalysts, [28][29][30] and complexes of aluminium, [31][32][33] cobalt, 10,12,34 chromium, 35,36 iron, 16,17 magnesium, 27,37,38 and zinc. [39][40][41] However, there are only limited reports of the Group 4 metals (Ti, Zr, Hf ) being used in this transformation; perhaps surprising given there are multiple studies detailing their efficacy in the ROP of cyclic esters [42][43][44][45][46] and the ROCOP of epoxides and CO 2 . [47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55] In 1999, Endo and co-workers reported the use of titanium alkoxide catalysts in the ROCOP of oxetane and anhydrides, whilst heterogeneous zirconium phosphate materials with intercalated amines have also been demonstrated to catalyse the ROCOP of glycidyl phenyl ether and hexahydro-4-methylphthalic anhydride.…”
