A novel catalytic application of titanosilicate molecular sieves (TS-1 and TiMCM-41), in the synthesis of polycarbonate precursors like cyclic carbonates and dimethyl and diphenyl carbonates, avoiding toxic chemicals like phosgene or CO, is reported. Cyclic carbonates were prepared, over TS-1 and TiMCM-41, in high yields, by cycloaddition of CO2to epoxides, like epichlorohydrin, propylene oxide and styrene oxide, at low temperatures and pressures. Further, transesterification of the cyclic carbonates with methanol and phenol, over TiMCM-41, yielded other polycarbonate precursors like dimethyl carbonate (DMC) and diphenyl carbonate (DPC). The cyclic carbonates could also be synthesized from the olefins in the same reactor by reacting the olefins, in the presence of TiMCM-41, with a mixture of an epoxidizing agent (like H2O2or tert-butyl hydroperoxide) and CO2.
