Abstract
A process produces vinyl ether compounds and includes allowing a vinyl ester compound represented by following Formula (1):wherein R1, R2, R3 and R4 are the same or different and are each a hydrogen atom or an organic group, to react with a hydroxy compound represented by following Formula (2):R5OH (2)wherein R5 is an organic group, in the presence of at least one transition element compound to thereby yield a vinyl ether compound represented by following Formula (3):wherein R2, R3, R4 and R5 have the same meanings as defined above. Such transition element compounds include iridium compounds and other compounds containing Group VIII elements.
