PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF ORGANIC CARBONATE DERIVATES

摘要

The present invention relates in general terms to a new process for the preparation of organic carbonate derivatives, cyclic or linear by a trans carbonation reaction between PCC and a suitable aliphatic alcohol, in the presence of a homogeneous or heterogeneous basic catalyst; the process allows to optimize yields and selectivities of the obtained products, especially in the case of the preparation of symmetrical linear or cyclic carbonates starting from the corresponding primary alcohols.
