Abstract	Transesterification of dimethyl carbonate (DMC) with glycerol was investigated using various ionic liquids as catalysts. Synthesis of glycerol carbonate (GC) with high selectivity (97%) has been achieved using choline hydroxide ([Cho][OH]) as a catalyst at 90C. Effect of various reaction conditions on the activity and selectivity was investigated among which catalyst concentration had a significant influence on conversion as well as selectivity to GC as well as glycidol (GD). Use of recycled catalyst indicated a slight drop in conversion and selectivity to GC due to dilution of reactants as well as presence of products from the previous experiment.However, the catalyst was active for the reaction. Also heterogenisation of catalyst was done to study its effect on activity, selectivity and reusability. A kinetic model is being developed.
