A dual-functional catalyst for selective dicarbamate synthesis via oxidative carbonylation: enhanced methoxylation for suppressing urea polymer formation

Green Chem., 2024, 26,7732-7738DOI: 10.1039/D4GC01045K, CommunicationSeulgi Han, Young-Woo You, Kwanyong Jeong, Mintaek Im, Jung-Ae Lim, Soo Min Kim, Jin Hee Lee, Ji Hoon ParkThe balance between carbonylation and methoxylation rates is pivotal in dicarbamate synthesis via oxidative carbonylation. The superior methoxylation reactivity of Pd/CeO2 prevents urea accumulation, thereby achieving a high yield of dicarbamates.The content of this RSS Feed (c) The Royal Society of Chemistry
