Abstract

A process for the production of a diaryl carbonate comprising: PA1 contacting an aromatic hydroxy compound with a carbonyl halide in the presence of a catalyst in a reactor system under conditions sufficient for the formation of a diaryl carbonate and a hydrogen halide; PA1 recovering the aromatic carbonate; and PA1 recycling at least some of the hydrogen halide within the reactor system to regenerate the carbonyl halide.
