Abstract: | Metal phthalocyanine complexes (MPc; M = Cu2+, Co2+, Ni2+ and Al3+) encapsulated in zeolite-Y exhibit high catalytic activity for the cycloaddition of CO2 to epichlorohydrin and propylene oxide yielding the corresponding cyclic carbonates. The catalysts could be separated easily from the reaction mixture and reused with little loss in activity. These environmentally benign catalysts are also more efficient than either the neat complexes or those obtained by supporting them on solids like silica. |
