Substrate scope for the conversion of terminal epoxides 1 into the corresponding carbonates 2. Reaction conditions: 1.0 equiv. 1 (1.00 g), 5 mol % 8, 23 °C, 24 h, p(CO2)=1.0 MPa, solvent‐free. Isolated yields are given. [a] n‐Butanol was employed as a solvent. [b] Yields were determined by 1H NMR spectroscopy using mesitylene as internal standard. [c] 80 °C, p(CO2)=2.5 MPa.
