Probing catalytic activity of halide salts by electrical conductivity in the coupling reaction of CO2 and propylene oxide.
In the water-assisted coupling reaction of CO(2) and propylene oxide (PO) catalyzed by halide salts, the PO conversion was closely correlated with the electrical conductivity, suggesting that simple conductivity measurements might be used as a potential method for the selection of the catalyst.
