Abstract

The catalytic performance of pyridinium salt ionic liquids in the reaction of butyl glycidyl ether and carbon dioxide was investigated in this study. The catalytic activity was studied in a batch reactor with different 1-alkylpyridinium salt ionic liquids at 60–140°C. The conversion of butyl glycidyl ether was affected by the structure of the ionic liquid; the one with the cation of bulkier alkyl chain length showed better reactivity. The effect of carbon dioxide pressure, reaction temperature and zinc bromide co-catalyst on this reaction was also discussed.
