New Highly Active and Selective Heterogeneous Catalytic System for the Synthesis of Unsymmetrical Organic Carbonates: A Green Protocol

A green, efficient, and selective synthesis of unsymmetrical organic carbonates is realised in the liquid phase by direct condensation of an alcohol and diethyl carbonate, in an eco‐compatible route, in the presence of a recyclable heterogeneous solid‐base CsF/α‐Al2O3 catalyst. The catalyst displaye...

Zusammenfassung:A green, efficient, and selective synthesis of unsymmetrical organic carbonates is realised in the liquid phase by direct condensation of an alcohol and diethyl carbonate, in an eco‐compatible route, in the presence of a recyclable heterogeneous solid‐base CsF/α‐Al2O3 catalyst. The catalyst displayed unprecedented activity after activation at 393 K for 4 h and produced quantitative yields with a greater rate compared with solid bases reported so far. The present process is a potential alternative to replace soluble bases in commercial synthesis. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2005)
