Abstract:
A method for producing a high purity, high quality amide compound, particularly a lactam. An amount of each of a halide, an aldehyde compound, an alcohol compound and a nitrile compound contained in a solution recycled into an oxime-forming step is controlled to an amount of 0.4 mol % or less based on the ketone as a starting material. One or more of a ketone, an oxime and an amide compound are purified by hydrogenation and/or crystallization for eliminating impurities containing a double bond. A content of impurities having a cyclic bridge structure is controlled using a cycloalkanone purified by recrystallization.
Abstract:
This invention relates to a process for producing an amide compound by Beckmann rearrangement of an oxime compound using a compound having at least two electron-withdrawing leaving groups as a rearrangement catalyst, the process comprising a pre-preparation step in which the rearrangement catalyst and at least a part of the oxime compound are mixed and reacted; and a rearrangement reaction step in which the oxime compound is rearranged at a temperature higher than that in the pre-preparation step.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for preparing amides, in which an amino acid ionic liquid is used as both a reaction medium and a catalyst to catalyze Beckman rearrangement of a ketoxime, so as to produce an amide. In the method, the rearrangement is conducted by catalyzing a ketoxime with an amino acid ionic liquid having the asymmetric property at a moderate reaction temperature during a short reaction time, so as to produce an amide without adding other catalysts such as concentrate sulfuric acid. The method has advantages such as avoiding corrosion in equipments with pipelines, the high conversion rate of ketoximes and the high selectivity of amides.

The present invention also provides a method for preparing an amide in the presence of the catalyst composition, and the method has advantages such as decreasing viscosity of ionic liquid, and increasing conversion rate of ketoximes and selectivity of amides.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for preparing an amide. The method includes the steps of performing in a reactor including a catalyst composition having a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound and sulfuric acid Beckman rearrangement of a ketoxime to form a product stream having the amide, wherein a molar ratio of the nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound to the sulfuric acid is from 1:1 to 1:8; and separating an organic phase having the amide and an aqueous phase having the catalyst composition from the product stream. The present invention facilitates the regeneration of the catalyst composition with low water content, so as to increase the conversion rate of a ketoxime and the selectivity of an amide.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for producing an amide or lactam, particularly laurolactam, wherein catalytic amounts of an acidic chloride and a Lewis acid are used in Beckmann rearrangement of an oxime compound. In accordance with the process, side reactions during Beckmann rearrangement can be so controlled that selectivity can be improved and strong coloring in the reaction can be prevented, giving a high-quality amide or lactam.
