With high surface area, open porosity and high efficiency, a catalyst was prepared and firstly employed in electrocatalytic reduction of CO2 and electrosynthesis of dimethyl carbonate (DMC). The electrochemical property for electrocatalytic reduction of CO2 in ionic liquid was studied by cyclic voitammogram (CV). The effects of various reaction variables like temperature, working potential and cathode materials on the electrocatalytic performance were also investigated. 80% yield of DMC was obtained under the optimal reaction conditions.
