A rapid and effective synthesis of propylene carbonate using a supercritical CO2–ionic liquid system
TL;DR: The synthesis of propylene carbonate from propylene oxide and carbon dioxide under supercritical conditions in the presence of 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate was achieved in nearly 100% yield and 100% selectivity within 5 minutes, whose TOF value is 77 times larger than those so far reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of dimethyl carbonate and glycols from carbon dioxide, epoxides, and methanol using heterogeneous basic metal oxide catalysts with high activity and selectivity
TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive report on a two-step synthesis of dimethyl carbonate (DMC) from epoxides, carbon dioxide and methanol using various basic metal oxide catalysts was given.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polar Attributes of Supercritical Carbon Dioxide
TL;DR: Understanding the solvent behavior of liquid and scCO(2) is of critical importance to enable the design of CO(2)-philic molecular systems and to expand the use of these solvent systems to a wider range of chemical processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
The leaching and re-deposition of metal species from and onto conventional supported palladium catalysts in the Heck reaction of iodobenzene and methyl acrylate in N-methylpyrrolidone
TL;DR: In this article, supported palladium catalysts are used for Heck vinylation of iodobenzene with methyl acrylate in N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) in the presence of triethylamine and sodium carbonate bases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hajime Kawanami,Yutaka Ikushima +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors showed that carbon dioxide to styrene carbonate can be achieved under supercritical conditions with DMF even in the absence of any additional catalysts, giving a maximum yield of 85% in the near-critical region.
