Reaction Steps

The same procedures as in Example 1 were used, except that the reaction temperature of the phenyl carbonate preparation step was 210° C. As a result, the yield of methyl phenyl carbonate was 17%, and the yield of diphenyl carbonate was 24%. Furthermore, at the same time, methyl benzoate was produced as a by-product with a yield of 41% (the yield was based on phenyl benzoate).
