Reaction Steps

Example 1 was repeated with 14.1 g of a powdered titanium nitride from H. C. Starck at 140° C. After 2 hours' reaction time, phenol conversion was 21.6%, wherein 0.03 g of phenyl chloroformate and 34.3 g of diphenyl carbonate were formed. Selectivity for carbonates was approximately 99%.
