Research progress on metal oxides and zeolites in CO2 cycloaddition reactions
Conversion of CO2,a major greenhouse gas as well as a cheap,non-toxic and renewable C1 resource,into valuable fine chemicals can effectively mitigate climate change and facilitate carbon neutrality.Cyclic carbonates,obtained from the cycloaddition between CO2 and epoxides with the advantages of high atom economy,high selectivity and low pollution,can be used as electrolyte for lithium-ion battery,precursor of polymer materials and intermediate of fine chemicals.The oxides have been considered a promising catalyst for cycloaddition reaction because of their diverse structures and controllable acid-base properties.Herein,the research progress,especially the reaction mechanism and the application,on two typical,low-cost and easily large-scale oxides:metal oxides and zeolites,in catalyzing the CO2 cycloaddition reaction were reviewed.Meanwhile,the existing problems and the future research directions were discussed,and it was pointed out that the future work should be aimed at the development of true inhomogeneous catalysts without additives and exploration on reaction mechanism.
