  • CATALYSTS FOR THE SYNTHESIS OF OXAZOLIDINONE COMPOUNDS
    Publication number: 20170081462
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for the selective production of oxazolidinone compounds with high activities, comprising the step of reacting an isocyanate compound with an epoxide compound in the presence of an onium salt as catalyst and to the oxazolidinone compounds obtainable by said method. The invention further relates to a polyoxazolidinone compound, obtainable by reacting a polyisocyanate compound with a polyepoxide compound in the presence of an onium salt as catalyst, with a regioselectivity towards the 5-substituted 1,3-oxazolidin-2-one regioisomer of ?78%.
