Abstract

A process for producing an oligoester which comprises: PA0 (a) the step of reacting isophthalic acid and propylene oxide in a reaction medium in the presence of a specific catalyst comprising a tetraalkyl ammonium compound to prepare an oligoester, and PA0 (b) the step of removing volatile components from the resulting oligoester by heating the oligoester at a temperature of 180.degree.-280.degree. C. is disclosed. The oligoester is used as an intermediate for preparing unsaturated polyesters.
