Abstract

Abstract Carbonic diesters containing at least one aromatic ester group can be prepared from carbonic diesters containing at least one aliphatic ester group by transesterification using a phenol, titanium dioxide having a surface area of at least 20 m 2 /g as determined by the BET method being used as catalyst.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 80 words
Process for the preparation of carbonic diesters containing at least one aromatic ester group from carbonic diesters containing at least one aliphatic ester group by catalysed transesterification with a phenol, characterised in that the catalyst used is a titanium dioxide having a surface area of at least 90 m 2 /g as determined by the BET method in an amount of 0.1 to 200% by weight, relative to the carbonic diester used, which contains at least one aliphatic ester group.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 80 words
Process for the preparation of carbonic diesters containing at least one aromatic ester group from carbonic diesters containing at least one aliphatic ester group by catalysed transesterification with a phenol, characterised in that the catalyst used is a titanium dioxide having a surface area of at least 90 m 2 /g as determined by the BET method in an amount of 0.1 to 200% by weight, relative to the carbonic diester used, which contains at least one aliphatic ester group.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 35 words
Process according to claim 1, characterised in that the catalyst is used in an amount of 1 to 100% by weight, relative to the carbonic diester used, which contains at least one aliphatic ester group.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 65 words
Process according to claim 1, characterised in that carbonic diesters containing at least one aliphatic ester group of the formula R.sup.1 O--CO--OR.sup.2 are used, in which R 1 and R 2 independently of one another, denote straight-chain or branched C 1 -C 12 -alkyl or C 3 -C 8 -cycloalkyl, in which furthermore R 1 can denote substituted or unsubstituted C 6 -C 12 -aryl.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 59 words
Process according to claim 2, characterised in that the carbonic diesters contain at least one aliphatic ester group of the formula R.sup.3 O--CO--OR.sup.4 in which R 3 and R 4 , independently of one another, denote straight-chain or branched C 1 -C 8 -alkyl, cyclopropyl, cyclopentyl or cyclohexyl, in which furthermore R 3 can denote substituted or unsubstituted phenyl.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 124 words
