Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>The <named-content content-type="reactionType" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">cycloaddition</named-content> of epoxide and CO₂ to synthesize cyclic carbonate catalyzed by VO(IV) porphyrin was achieved under 1.4 MPa at 150°C. The effects of reaction temperature, time, CO₂ pressure, co‐catalyst and porphyrin framework were investigated. The catalytic results showed that moderate to high yields of cyclic carbonates were obtained under the optimal reaction conditions. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley &amp; Sons, Ltd.</p> </abstract>
