ABSTRACT
The cycloaddition of carbon dioxide (CO2) with epoxides to yield highly value-added cyclic carbonates is an effective way to chemically utilize and convert CO2. Here, a heterogeneous catalyst of imidazole ionic liquid-decorated covalent organic framework with polyoxometalates (POM@ImTD-COF) was constructed by the covalent modification of ionic liquids to COFs and the electrostatic interaction between POMs and ionic liquids. The obtained POM@ImTD-COF shows high catalytic activity for CO2 cycloaddition reaction under mild conditions (1 atm and 80 °C) in the presence of a co-catalyst, and the catalytic activity of POM@ImTD-COF has no obvious decrease during reusing five times. The excellent catalytic performance is mainly attributed to the synergistic effect of ionic liquids, POMs, and COFs. In the cycloaddition process, ionic liquids and the co-catalyst weaken the C-O bond of epoxides and promote the ring opening of epoxides. POMs as the Lewis acids facilitate the insertion of CO2 to form reaction intermediates. The multiple activation effect of ionic liquids and POMs together with the CO2 adsorption effect and well-dispersed active sites in COFs contribute to the remarkable catalytic performance.
