Abstract

Industrially important materials, such as high-performance plastics, polyurethane elastomers, adhesives, etc., are usually obtained from isocyanates. Phosgene has been used to prepare isocyanates on a commercial basis, and non-phosgene routes have attracted considerable attention in the last two decades.14 One of the approaches being advanced is to first synthesize the urethane, either by oxidative carbonylation of amine^^.^ or by reductive carbonylation ...
