Abstract
Abstract Highly pure aromatic polyfunctional cyanic acid esters having a high stability in storage and being extraordinary suitable for use as starting compound for the production of plastics by cyclopoly-trimerization are obtained by a special process. Alkaline earth and/or alkali metal salts of polyfunctional aromatic hydroxy compounds said alkaline earth and/or alkali metal compound capable of phenolate formation are used in excess of up to 0.1 mol per mol of aromatic hydroxy group are reacted with an excess of cyanogen halide. The cyanogen halide excess comprises up to 1 mol per mol of aromatic hydroxy group plus excess mol of the metal compound used for salt production.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
158 words
A process for producing a polyfunctional aromatic cyanic acid ester which comprises reacting at least one aromatic hydroxy salt selected from the group consisting of alkaline earth and alkali metal salts of aromatic polyhydroxy compounds in the presence of aqueous isopropanol as solvent and from 0.001 to 10% by weight, based on the weight of said aromatic hydroxy salt, of a catalytic tertiary amine with excess cyanogen halide, said aromatic hydroxy salt having been produced by reacting a polyhydroxy compound with an excess of up to 0.1 mol of aromatic hydroxy groups of at least one metal compound of the group consisting of alkaline earth and alkali metal compounds and said cyanogen halide excess comprised up to 1 mol per mol of aromatic hydroxy groups plus the excess mols of said metal compound used for producing said aromatic hydroxy salt plus 1.1% by weight of cyanogen halide for each percent by weight of the catalytic tertiary amine used.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
158 words
A process for producing a polyfunctional aromatic cyanic acid ester which comprises reacting at least one aromatic hydroxy salt selected from the group consisting of alkaline earth and alkali metal salts of aromatic polyhydroxy compounds in the presence of aqueous isopropanol as solvent and from 0.001 to 10% by weight, based on the weight of said aromatic hydroxy salt, of a catalytic tertiary amine with excess cyanogen halide, said aromatic hydroxy salt having been produced by reacting a polyhydroxy compound with an excess of up to 0.1 mol of aromatic hydroxy groups of at least one metal compound of the group consisting of alkaline earth and alkali metal compounds and said cyanogen halide excess comprised up to 1 mol per mol of aromatic hydroxy groups plus the excess mols of said metal compound used for producing said aromatic hydroxy salt plus 1.1% by weight of cyanogen halide for each percent by weight of the catalytic tertiary amine used.
