Periodic Reporting for period 1 - RECIRCULATE (The development of bio-supported homogeneous organocatalysts with improved recycling potential through sequential de- and re-polymerization and their use in CO2 valorization catalysis)

This work presents the development of new biodegradable plastics that can carry and release drug molecules in a controlled way. Researchers created two types of specialized building blocks (cyclic carbonates) that were chemically linked to a drug called oxaprozin. These were...
