Disclosed is a process for preparing a diaryl oxalate which comprises the step of transesterifying a dialkyl oxalate or/and an alkylaryl oxalate with an aryl alcohol in the presence of a tetra(aryloxy)titanium as a catalyst, wherein the tetra(aryloxy)titanium is fed into a reaction system of the transesterification as an aryl alcohol solution of the tetra(aryloxy)titanium which is prepared by reacting a tetraalkoxy titanium and an excess amount of the aryl alcohol and removing a by-producing alkyl alcohol.
A high purity diaryl carbonate is produced with a high efficiency by reacting carbon monoxide with an alkyl nitrite and/or an alkyl alcohol; reacting the resultant dialkyl oxalate with a hydroxyaryl compound, for example, phenol; decarbonylating the resultant diaryl oxalate to produce a diaryl carbonate and carbon monoxide; and collecting the diaryl carbonate from the decarbonylation reaction product mixture, the carbon monoxide produced in the decabonylation step being optionally reused for the production of the dialkyl oxalate.

The presence of Lewis acids strongly influences the distribution of products from alkene ozonolysis. Delivery of alkoxide and phenoxide ligands to a coordinated carbonyloxide affords hydroperoxyacetals under aprotic conditions.
