Abstract

In this paper, progress in the synthesis of dimethyl carbonate (DMC) with carbon dioxide and methanol as raw materials was reviewed. It was proposed that DMC synthesis from carbon dioxide, especially from carbon dioxide and methanol, has much significance in the fields of synthetic chemistry, utilization of carbon resources and environmental protection. It provides potential applications for DMC production.
