Here we describe the utilization of NHC-CO2 which transfers CO2 to alcohols for the synthesis of dialkyl carbonates under mild conditions with high conversion and excellent selectivity. In addition NHC-CO2 formation was supported by electrochemical analysis. This study provides a new procedure for the synthesis of dialkyl carbonates of chemical and pharmaceutical interest, as well as expands the applications of NHCs in CO2 fixation.
