Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for preparing aromatic polycarbonates, comprising the step of reacting bisphenols with dithiocarbonates or selenium analogs thereof in the presence of a catalyst. It further relates to the use of dithiocarbonates or selenium analogs thereof as transesterifying reagents for the preparation of polycarbonates.
