Abstract
: In this study, high yields of various cyclic carbonates were obtained by employing the drug celecoxib to promote the coupling reaction of CO2 and epoxide using tetrabutylammonium bromide. This strategy enabled the synthesis of benzoic acid, phenylpropiolic acid, and 2, 4- quinazolinedione. In addition, the model reaction mechanism was proposed. background: Cyclic carbonates have a high economic value and broad application as intermediate in fine chemicals, monomers for synthesizing active polymers, polar aprotic solvents in organic reactions and electrolytes in lithium-ion batteries.

Aims & Scope
Letters in Organic Chemistry publishes original letters (short articles), research articles, mini-reviews and thematic issues based on mini-reviews and short articles, in all areas of organic chemistry including synthesis, bioorganic, medicinal, natural products, organometallic, supramolecular, molecular recognition and physical organic chemistry. The emphasis is to publish quality papers rapidly by taking full advantage of latest technology for both submission and review of the manuscripts.
The journal is an essential reading for all organic chemists belonging to both academia and industry.
