Abstract

Aromatic polyether polymers, illustrated by polyethersulfones, polyetherketones and polyetherimides, are prepared by a phase transfer catalyzed reaction between a salt of at least one dihydroxyaromatic compound and at least one substituted aromatic compound such as bis(4-chlorophenyl) sulfone, bis(4-chlorophenyl) ketone or 1,3-bisN-(4-chlorophthalimido)!benzene, in a monoalkoxybenzene such as anisole as diluent and in the presence of a phase transfer catalyst, preferably a hexaalkylguanidinium salt.
