Organotin oxide was used to catalyze the reaction between BPA (bisphenol A) and DMC (dimethyl carbonate), and Ph2SnO (diphenyltin oxide) displays the excellent catalytic performance in transesterification and O-methylation. However, Bu2SnO (dibutyltin oxide), (PhCH 2)2SnO (dibenzyltin oxide) and (C6H 11)2SnO (dicyclohexyltin oxide) exhibited weaker catalytic activity but higher selectivity for C-methylation product formation. The π-π function between Ph2SnO and BPA provided more chances for their interaction, and π-d interaction between phenyl ring and Sn resulted in catalyst having higher activity in transesterification and O-methylation. O-methylation product formation over Ph2SnO comes from transesterification product decomposition not from direct methylation of BPA with DMC.

Carboxymethylated species were selectively synthesized from dimethyl carbonate (DMC) and bisphenol A (BPA) over TiO2/SBA-15. On the basis of catalyst characterization by means of XRD, FT-IR, HPLC and GC-MS, the relations between catalytic performance and catalyst properties were discussed. Si-O-Ti was active sites for reaction, and the interaction mode between Ti-O-Si and DMC was main factor to determine carboxymethylation and methylation. When DMC was attacked by Ti-O-Si on two oxygen atoms of CH3-O moiety, BPA attacked carbonyl carbon to form carboxymethylated products. If the interaction occurs through the oxygen of C{double bond, long}O moiety, BPA attacked methyl carbon to form methylated products. Chemisorbed H2O over TiO2/SBA-15 made DMC to act as methylating agent. After chemisorbed H2O was removed, carboxymethylated species of two-methylcarbonate-ended-BPA (DmC(1)) and one-methylcarbonate-ended-BPA (MmC(1)) were selectively synthesized.
