Page/Page column 8-10, (2008/06/13)
The present invention relates to a process to prepare dialkyl monophenyl phosphate, monoalkyl diphenyl phosphate or mixtures thereof wherein dichloromonophenyl phosphate and/or monochlorodiphenyl phosphate is reacted with an aliphatic alcohol in the presence of a Lewis acid catalyst and in the absence of solvent at a temperature of 40 to 200°C and a pressure of 0 to 1 bar. The present invention further relates to mixtures of monoalkyl diphenyl phosphates and dialkyl monophenyl phosphates obtainable from the above process and the use of such mixtures as a plasticiser and/or a flame retardant.

Organic phosphates are prepared in good yields by contacting the corresponding organic phosphite with an oxygen-containing gas that is preferably oxygen in the presence of a catalyst that comprises nitrogen dioxide in amounts that will provide at least 0.40 mole of oxygen and from 0.01 mole to 0.25 mole of nitrogen dioxide catalyst per mole of phosphite at a temperature in the range of -30° C. to 120° C.
