A brand new zeolite catalyst for carbonylation reaction

Abstract

Carbonylation is an effective way to introduce carbonyl groups into organic chemicals. However, the known zeolite candidates for carbonylation are very few. Here, we discovered a new zeolite EU-12 that shows excellent catalytic performance for carbonylation reactions, inserting carbonyl groups into dimethyl ether (DME) to produce methyl acetate (MA). This finding adds a brand new zeolite to the solid catalyst family for carbonylation reaction.
