Zirconyl chloride was found to be an efficient catalyst for the cycloaddition reaction of aziridines with CO2, thus leading to the preferential formation of 5-aryl-2-oxazolidinones undersolvent-freeconditions. The methodology could be extended to various substituted aziridines with high conversion and chemo-, regio-, and stereoselectivity. Furthermore, the catalyst could be reused over five times

Natural alpha-amino acids were proven to be ecofriendly and recyclable catalysts for the carboxylation of aziridines with CO2 without utilization of any organic solvents or additives. Notably, a series of 5-aryl-2-oxazolidinones were obtained in good yield together with excellent chemo- and regioselectivity under mild conditions using proline as the catalyst. Notably, the catalyst could be recycled more than five times after a simple separation procedure without appreciable loss of catalytic activity. This process represents a promising strategy for homogeneous catalyst recycling.
