Abstract: A polycarbonate is produced by melt-polycondensing a dihydric hydroxy compound and a bisarylcarbonate in the presence of 4-(4-methyl-1-piperidinyl)-pyridine, or a salt thereof, as a catalyst. The process of the invention eliminates the use of poisonous phosgene, prevents chloride ions from being incorporated into the product polycarbonate and remains in the reaction system longer to enable the preparation of high-molecular weight polycarbonates.

Abstract: A polycarbonate is produced by melt-polycondensing (A) a dihydric phenol with a co-monomer selected from the group consisting of (B) bisphenol carbonate, (C) bis(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl) carbonate (D) bis(2,4,-dichlorophenyl) carbonate and (E) bis(2-cyanophenyl) carbonate in the presence of a catalyst selected from among electron-donating amine compounds and salts thereof. The process of the invention saves the use of phosgene which is poisonous and prevents the resulting polycarbonate from incorporation thereinto of chlorine ions.
