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.
