The invention relates to a method for producing, amongst other things, amino-acid and/or hydroxycarboxylic-acid metal chelates, a solvent-free mixture of at least one metal oxide, metal hydroxide, metal carbonate or oxalate, and the solid organic acid is subjected to intensive mechanical stress. According to the invention, this is done in that the reaction partners are introduced in particle form into a fluid stream of a fluid-bed countercurrent mill operating without grinding elements, wherein mechanical activation of at least one of the reaction partners is effected by collision processes within a reaction chamber formed in a region of the fluid stream, and a solid body reaction to form the metal chelate is triggered. The novel method operates very energy-efficiently and with a high specific yield. It leads to a product having compact particles in the small, single-digit micrometer range having a comparatively narrow particle size distribution and a large surface. The product is homogenous and very pure. Thermal loading or decomposition of the organic chelate ligands, in particular of the amino acids, is likewise avoided, as are contaminants from milling and grinding element abrasion.

Diaryl carbonates can be prepared by reacting aromatic hydroxy compounds with CO and O.sub.2 at elevated temperature over a noble metal catalyst in the presence of a base, a quaternary salt, a cocatalyst and a dessicant. According to the invention, the noble metal catalyst is activated with CO in the presence of the quaternary salt and optionally in the presence of the cocatalyst. In a particular process variant, the base used is a preformed alkali metal phenoxide.

Process for preparing diaryl carbonates

The invention relates to a process for the continuous preparation of diaryl carbonates by reaction of an aromatic hydroxyl compound with carbon monoxide and oxygen in the presence of a catalyst containing a noble metal of group VIIIb of the Periodic Table of the Elements, a quaternary salt, a cocatalyst and a base. The catalyst is activated by treatment with carbon monoxide in the liquid phase. The reaction water is removed by excess reaction gas.

A new process has been found for the preparation of substituted 2-chloropyridine derivatives of the formula (I) ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 to R.sup.4 have the meanings as defined in the description. The new process is characterized in that pyridine 1-oxides of the formula II ##STR2## are reacted with a chlorine-containing phosphoric acid derivative from the series of the chlorophosphoric esters and chlorophosphoramides in the presence of an inert organic solvent and in the presence of an acid acceptor at temperatures between -20.degree. C. and 200.degree. C., and the resulting product is separated further, if appropriate. Compound (I) is known as an intermediate product for medicaments (cf.DE-A 2,812,585) or for insecticidel nitromethylene derivatives (cf. EP-A 163,855).
