This perspective discusses bibliography data that has been published since 2018 on the synthesis of oxazolidinones by reacting corresponding aziridines with CO2. The versatility and viability of various procedures have been analyzed by considering the variety of tested substrates as well as experimental conditions and catalytic systems used.

Hematin supported on Colour Catcher®: Biodegradable Heterogeneous Catalyst for Halogen-free CO2 Cycloadditions This work describes the activity of biocompatible hemin derivatives in catalyzing the cycloaddition of CO2 to epoxides and aziridines. The process sustainability was enhanced through the use of a catalytic material obtained by heterogenizing hematin onto Colour Catcher® sheets, a cellulose-based support with complete biodegradability.

What happens to a paper after it is submitted? Who is deciding on its fate? What is the role of the journal editor and the editorial office?
