Abstract

Selective synthesis of carbamates from amines and dimethyl carbonate were studied in the presence of various ionic liquids as catalysts. The –SO 3H-functionalized ionic liquid was found to be the most active catalyst among the applied ionic liquids, and nearly 100% conversion and 95% selectivity were achieved when using 1,6-hexanediamine as reactant. The acid functional ionic liquid catalyst system is also readily separable and reusable after reaction.
