Carbonylation of glycerol with urea to glycerol carbonate over supported Zn catalysts

Abstract Glycerol carbonylation with urea is a very feasible option to produce glycerol carbonate with a net result of CO2 fixation through urea synthesis. The prerequisite of an efficient catalyst for this reaction is to possess both acid and basic sites together. Several acidic supports were scree...
