Vegetable oils have been widely used in food, surfactants, lubricants, biodiesel, coatings, and other fields due to their advantages such as renewable, abundant, suitable for further processing, and biodegradable. On the other hand, microwave technology has attracted extensive attention in organic and polymeric chemistry because the technology can greatly shorten the reaction time, improve the yield of products, reduce side reactions, etc. This paper summarized recent advances on the microwave-assisted modification of vegetable oils or their derivatives, such as esterification of free fatty acids, transesterification of triglycerides, epoxidation, and polymerization.

The development of catalytic methods for chemical transformation of CO2 into useful compounds is of paramount importance from a standpoint of C1 chemistry and so-called green chemistry. The kinetic and thermodynamic stability of CO2 molecule presents significant challenges in designing efficient chemical transformations based on this potential feedstock. In this context, efforts to convert CO2 to useful chemicals will inevitably rely on its activation through molecular catalysts, particularly transition-metal catalysts. Two preparative processes employing solid catalyst or CO2-philic homogeneous catalyst were devised for environmentally benign synthesis of organic carbonates and oxazolidinones under solvent-free conditions. Those processes represent pathways for greener chemical fixations of CO2 to afford industrial useful materials such as organic carbonates and oxazolidinones with great potential applications.

Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) in this work proved to be an efficient reaction medium for the reaction of vicinal halohydrin with carbon dioxide in the presence of a base to synthesise cyclic carbonates. Notably, PEG-400 as an environmentally friendly solvent exhibits a unique influence on reactivity compared with conventional organic solvents. Various cyclic carbonates were prepared in high yield employing this protocol. The process presented here has potential applications in the industrial production of cyclic carbonates because of its simplicity, cost benefits, ready availability of starting materials, and mild reaction conditions.

The analysis of literary data on the obtaining of cyclic carbonates based on the vegetable oils has been carried out. The influence on carbonation reaction the type of vegetable oil, the chemical composition and catalyst concentration, state of carbon dioxide, pressure and temperature have thus been considered. The carbonation process of epoxidized oils that are valuable renewable vegetable raw materials is studied insufficiently.
