A process for producing an aromatic polyester carbonate resin in which the molar ratio of the dihydric phenolic compound residue to aromatic dicarboxylic acid residue to carbonate bond is in the range of 2:0.5:1.5-2:1.4:0.6 and these constituent components form an alternating configuration of high regularity, said process comprising a first step wherein in producing a hydroxyl-terminated aromatic oligocarbonate by reacting a dihydric phenolic compound with a halogenated carbonyl compound in a reaction medium consisting of water and a water-immiscible solvent in the presence of a basic inorganic compound, the reaction is carried out by using the basic inorganic compound in an amount of 0.6-1.6 moles per mole of the dihydric phenolic compound and the halogenated carbonyl compound in an amount of 0.3-0.8 mole per mole of the dihydric phenolic compound to form a reaction product mixture consisting predominantly of a phenolic hydroxyl-terminated oligocarbonate of a degree of polymerization of 1-3, and a second step in which an esterification reaction is carried out by reacting the reaction product mixture obtained in the first step with an aromatic dicarboxylic acid dichloride in the presence of a basic inorganic compound in an amount at least sufficient to neutralize the free phenolic hydroxyl groups that remain in the reaction product mixture.
A process for producing an aromatic polyester carbonate resin in which the molar ratio of dihydric phenolic compound residue to aromatic dicarboxylic acid residue to carbonate bond is in the range of 2:0.5:1.5-2:1.4:0.6 and said constituent components form a substantially completely regular alternating configuration, said process comprising a first step wherein, in producing a hydroxyl-terminated aromatic oligocarbonate by reacting a dihydric phenolic compound with a halogenated carbonyl compound in a reaction medium consisting of water and a water-immiscible solvent in the presence of a basic inorganic compound, the reaction is carried out by using the basic inorganic compound in an amount of 0.6-1.6 moles per mole of the dihydric phenolic compound and the halogenated carbonyl compound in an amount of 0.3-0.8 mole per mole of the dihydric phenolic compound to form a reaction product mixture consisting predominantly of a phenolic hydroxyl-terminated oligocarbonate having a degree of polymerization of 1-3, and a second step in which an esterification reaction is carried out by reacting the reaction product mixture obtained in the first step with an aromatic dicarboxylic acid dichloride in the presence of a basic inorganic compound in an amount at least sufficient to neutralize the free phenolic hydroxyl groups that remain in the reaction product mixture.
