Abstract

Herein, we report an effective synthesis of cyclic carbonates by cycloaddition of carbon dioxide to epoxide using a modified amino acid ionic liquid as catalyst under 1 atm pressure. With triethylamine as co-catalyst, the catalytic activity of the l-proline based ionic liquid was greatly enhanced, and up to 97 % isolated yield of cyclic carbonate was achieved at 90°C under atmospheric pressure without organic solvent and metal component.
