The Synthesis of 3-Aryl-2-oxazolidinones from CO2, Ethylene Oxide, and Anilines Under Mild Conditions Using PVA-DFNT/Ni

A novel nanocatalyst design using nanomaterials through active-zone crystallisation was proposed. The hydrothermal crystallisation of amorphous dendritic fibrous nano-titanium dioxide with Ni (DFNT/Ni) sites was determined to be the main step in producing extremely active dendritic DFNT/Ni zones, which in turn dramatically enhanced their catalytic activities. DFNT/Ni was then combined with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) by using a traditional individual-nozzle electrospinning method, and the resulting material was named PVA-DFNT/Ni. This method was utilised to produce 3-aryl-2-oxazolidinones from ethylene oxide, CO2, and anilines. The prepared catalytic apparatus was eco-friendly and had the advantages of high catalytic activity, ability to improve the reaction mixture, and reusability without a considerable decrease in efficiency. It is extracted in the straight and adoptive chemical fixation of flue-gas CO2 obtained from industrial emissions, thereby achieving high degrees of CO2 absorption and conversion.
