Abstract

The utilization of carbon dioxide under mild reaction conditions is an important aspect of the sustainable chemistry point of view. Herein, we prepared three bifunctional protic ionic liquids having 1,5,7-Triazabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-5-ene (TBD) as a cation and an alcohol anions were prepared by simple neutralization of the super base TBD with proton donor alcohols such as hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP), TFE (2,2,2-Trifluoroethanol) and TFA (2,2,2-Trifluoroacetic acid). These PILs were used as catalysts for chemical fixation of carbon dioxide into quinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-diones. [TBDH+][HFIP-] protic ionic liquid (PIL) shows very good result compare to other PILs. As a bifunctional ionic liquid, it simultaneously activates 2-aminobenzonitrile as well as CO2 and shows excellent performance for the conversion of 2-aminobenzonitrile to quinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-diones in presence of CO2 balloon pressure at 35 °C temperature. Moreover, the [TBDH+][HFIP-] PIL can be recycled up to six recycle run.
