Among chiral macrocycles 1 synthesized, lm with the 3,5-bis(trifluoromethypphenylethynyl group was the best organocatalyst for the enantioselective synthesis of cyclic carbonates from disubstituted or monosubstituted epoxides and CO2. The X-ray crystal structure of lm revealed a well-defined chiral cavity with multiple hydrogen-bonding sites that is suitable for the enantioselective activation of epoxides. A catalytic cycle proposed was supported by DFT calculations.
