Ceria nanoparticles as heterogeneous catalyst for CO2 fixation by omega-aminoalcohols.
In contrast to gamma-Al(2)O(3), TiO(2), ZrO(2), MgO and Y(2)O(3), CeO(2) is a reusable catalyst for the reaction of CO(2) with omega-aminoalcohols to form cyclic carbamates; the highest yield (68%) was obtained for the preparation of N-alkyl 1,3-oxazolidin-2-ones from N-alkyl ethanolamines.
