Abstract
Carbon dioxide was incorporated into various oxirane-containing compounds. The starting materials include natural products with epoxy groups (1-4), glycidyl compounds (5-9) and epoxidized polymers (9, 10). It could be shown that the crosslinking side reaction is not significant for internal epoxides but important for terminal glycidyl compounds.
