Abstract The synthesis of phenyl isocyanate (PI). was studied by thermal decomposition of methyl N-penyl carbamate (MPC) over tin catalysts. It has been found that di-n-butyltin oxide had higher activity. The unknown byproduct was determined as diphenylcarbodiimide (DPCD) by HPLC-MS. The results show that the formation of N,N'-diphenylurea (DPU) and DPCD are the main competitive reactions to the synthesis of PI. At normal pressure, the conversion of MPC is 85.17% and the yield of PI is 67.65% over Bu2SnO under the optimal reaction condition, which is as follows: solvent, o-dichlorobenzene (ODCB); m(ODCB)/m(MPC) = 15; n(Bu2SnO)/n(MPC) = 0.075; reaction time, 1 h.
