Reaction Steps

Diglycidyl isophthalate and diglycidyl orthophthalate were prepared by caustic treatment of the products from the catalytic reaction of the corresponding phthalic acid with an excess of epichlorohydrin. Diglycidyl terephthalate was prepared in toluene from terephthaloyl chloride, glycidol, and triethylamine.
