Theoretical Investigation Into The Reaction Mechanisms Of Benzyl Alcohol With Dimethyl Carbonate Over A Faujasite Zeolite Catalyst

Benzyl methyl ether (BME) compounds are largely synthesized by the chemicalindustry for use as a starting material for the synthesis of other organic compounds. In order to achieve the target of green chemistry, BME can be synthesized frombenzyl alcohol and dimethyl carbonate (DMC) using a zeolite...
