Zinc hydroxystannate: a promising solid acid–base bifunctional catalyst

Abstract

Zinc hydroxystannate is shown to be a highly active and selective solid bifunctional catalyst for carbonylation of glycerol with urea. It has strong basicity with Lewis acidic Zn, low hygroscopicity and good thermal stability which makes it a potential catalyst for heterogeneous acid–base catalysed reactions.
