ABSTRACT:
A continuous process is described for preparing a di-alkyl carbonate, e.g. dimethylcarbonate, via oxidative carbonylation of the corresponding alkanol, e.g. methanol, in the presence of a catalyst system containing a copper alkoxy-halide and water with a mole ratio of the water to the copper salt of between 0.25 and 2.0 and preferably between 0.5 and 1. In this manner extremely high di-alkyl carbonate formation rates are obtained.
