A new heterogeneous catalyst for the oxidative carbonylation of phenol to diphenyl carbonate.
Using layered double hydroxides as a support, both the palladium catalyst and the cobalt co-catalyst are heterogenised and proven to form an acceptable catalytic system for the heterogeneous oxidative carbonylation of phenol to diphenyl carbonate (DPC).
