The reaction conditions for the Accepted 29 January 2015 one-pot synthesis of DMC were investigated. Under the optimized conditions of initial pressure 0.5 Published 20 July 2015 MPa, 120 °C and catalyst loading of 7.5 mol%, 63.5% yield of DMC was achieved using ethylene oxide as the starting material. A mechanism for the catalysis by the alkali carbonate was proposed. Keywords:
