Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

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.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A process for producing a lactam, comprising: reacting a cyclic ketone and hydroxylamine to give an oxime; and conducting Beckmann rearrangement of the oxime using a Beckmann rearrangement catalyst to give a lactam, wherein the rearrangement catalyst is at least one selected from the group consisting of 4-chloro-3,5-dinitrobenzonitrile, picryl chloride, 2-chloro-3,5-dinitropyridine, trichlorotriazine, thionyl chloride, phosphorous trichloride and phosp…
