Various off-the-shelf Lewis acids in conjunction with various onium salts are screened for coupling reaction of $CO_2$ with epoxides. Among the tested ones, $VCl_3/n-Bu_4NOAc$, $VCl_3/(n-Bu_4NCl$ or PPNCl), $FeCl_3/ n-Bu_4NOAc$, and $FeCl_3/ n-Bu_4NOAc$are proved to be highly active. Propylene oxide, epichlorohydrin, styrene oxide, and cyclohexene oxide can be converted over 90% yields to the corresponding cyclic carbonates without the use of organic solvents under mild conditions by 0.1-1.0 mol% catalyst charge.

A. calcoaceticus C10 grown on cyclohexanol as sole source of carbon and energy produced cyclohexanol dehydrogenase(CDH) and glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) concomitantly. CDH and GDH were different in coenzyme, induction and electrophoretic patterns. CDH depended for activity on $NAD^+$ only, while GDH required $NAD^+$ or $NADP^+$ alternatively. CDH was produced in the medium added cyclohexanol, but GDH was produced in various media such as LB, LB added 0.2% glucose or cyclohexanol and cyclohexanol medium. Productivity of CDH in A. calcoaceticus C10 was enhanced about 8 times by the addition of 0.2% cyclohexanol to LB medium after 4 hours as much as LB medium only. Production of CDH was induced by cyclohexanol, cyclohexanone, cyclohexan-1,2-diol and cyclohexene oxide, but not induced by ${\varepsilon}-caprolactone$ and adipate.

This study was carried out to investigate the flavoral essential oil components in the stems of Agastache rugosa. These components were analyzed using gas chromatography-mass selective detector (GC-MSD). The stems of Agastache rugosa were contained alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, fatty acid esters, and terpenoids. The peak area (%) of estragole was highest among its oil components and the next were pulegone and menthone. The terpenoid alcohols found were 1-octen-3-ol, chavicol, spatulenol, 3-hexen-1-ol, 2-cyclohexen-1-ol, methyl eugenol, and octaethyllene glycol. The stems also contained ketones such as pulegone, menthone, cis-isopulegone, 2-cyclohexene-1-one, 3-octanone, 1-cyclohexanone, isoindole-1-one, t-ionone, inden-2-one, as well as the aldehydes of 4-methoxycinnam and benzaldehyde. The following esters were also detected 1-isopulegone-3-yl acetate, caryophyllene oxide, acetate and benzendicarboxylic acid ester. The terpenoids in the stems were identified as caryophyllene, limonene, cyclohexasiloxane-D, germacrene-D, anethole, cadinene, muurolene, and bourbonene. Overall Agastache rugosa contained several functional oil components including phenylpropanoids and terpenoids as flavoral essential oil components for natural aromatherapy.

Poly(cyclohexane carbonate) diol was synthesized by the alternating copolymerization of cyclohexene oxide and $CO_2$ over Cr based transition metal catalysts. The prepared PCCD was applied as a precursor for the preparation of waterborne polyurethane (PUD) in order to investigate an application field of carbon dioxide-based polycarbonate. The scratch resistance and thermal properties of PUDs, which was prepared with two kinds of polymeric diols (PCD and PCCD) were investigated. The scratch resistance and thermal decomposition temperature of PUD film prepared with PCCD is worse than those prepared with PCD, poly(hexamethylene carbonate) glycol. While, glass transition temperature of PUD film prepared with PCCD was higher than that prepared with PCD. It might be due to the rigid cyclohexane structure in the PCCD.
