The main product was found to be methyl phenyl carbonate (MPC) which is an intermediate of the reaction. The selectivity for DPC was improved when increasing the phenol/DMC molar ratio or prolonging the reaction time. The phenol conversion, selectivity for MPC and DPC were 47 4%, 90 9% and 9 14%, respectively, when the transesterification reaction approached equilibrium under the conditions of 175 ℃, 25 h and DMC∶phenol∶ Ti(OBu) 4 molar ratio of 1 5∶1∶0 05. The selectivity for DPC could reach 12.2% when the reaction time was 30 h. The tetrabutyl titanate catalyst showed a higher catalytic activity than tetraphenyl titanate.展开更多
