Aliphatic and cycloaliphatic isocyanates are manufactured by thermal decomposition of aliphatic or cycloaliphatic carbamic acid chlorides in the presence of an inert organic solvent of lower boiling point than that of the isocyanate formed. The decomposition is carried out in a reaction vessel surmounted by a rectifying unit, which in turn is surmounted by a reflux condenser, the isocyanate formed being condensed in the rectifying unit at a temperature above the boiling point of the solvent. |
