The aim &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;of&lt;/span&gt; this study was to understand the role &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;of&lt;/span&gt; acid-base properties &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;of&lt;/span&gt; MMOs on the activity and selectivity towards &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;dimethyl&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;carbonate&lt;/span&gt; (DMC) &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;synthesis&lt;/span&gt;. The MMOs were characterized in detail &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;by&lt;/span&gt; XRD, BET, TEM, NH3 and CO2-TPD techniques. Catalysts synthesized &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;by&lt;/span&gt; various combination &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;of&lt;/span&gt; Mn+/Al3+ showed different textural and surface properties and the strength &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;of&lt;/span&gt; acid-base sites were also found to be significantly altered. These changes in physicochemical properties significantly affected the PC conversion and selectivity to DMC. Li+ incorporated in Al3+ showed the formation &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;of&lt;/span&gt; octahedral alpha-LiAlO2 phase having more amounts &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;of&lt;/span&gt; active sites (O2-) present on the edges and corner &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;of&lt;/span&gt; the structure. This resulted in easy accessibility &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;of&lt;/span&gt; active sites and higher activity compared to other catalysts screened. Furthermore the catalyst retained high activity and selectivity for six consecutive recycle experiments; which is highly desirable for large-scale application.&lt;/p&gt;
