Synthesis of cyclic carbonates from epoxides and carbon dioxide catalyzed by talc and other phyllosilicates
Nakibuule, Fiona; Nyanzi, Steven Allan; Oshchapovsky, Igor; Wendt, Ola F.; Tebandeke, Emmanuel (Springer Nature, 2020)Naturally occurring phyllosilicate minerals such as talc and vermiculite in conjunction with n-tetra butyl ammonium bromide (TBAB) co-catalyst were found to be efficient in the coupling of CO2 with epoxides to form cyclic ...
