Abstract: Chemical fixation of CO2 for the formation of cyclic carbonates is an excellent strategy to reduce this gas in the atmosphere and invests in the production of value-added chemical products. The utilization of ionic liquids (ILs) immobilized on metal oxide supports represents a significant strategy for atmospheric CO2 mitigation, particularly through the fixation of CO2 into epoxides. In this regard, 1-methyl-3-(3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl)imidazolium trichlorozincate IL incorporated onto Al2O3 are prepared that represents remarkable catalytic activity for the chemical fixation of CO2 in different with epoxides with 80-90% conversion. The catalytic activity is influenced by the electron-withdrawing groups or low steric hindrance of epoxides.
