    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing 3-pentenenitrile, said metho d being characterised by the following steps: (a) 1,3-butadiene is reacted wit h hydrogen cyanide on at least one catalyst to obtain a flow (1) containing 3- pentenenitrile, 2-methyl-3-butenenitrile, the at least one catalyst, and 1,3 - butadiene; (b) the flow (1) is distilled in a column to obtain a top product flow (2) rich in 1,3-butadiene, and a bottom product flow (3) that is poor i n 1,3-butadiene and contains 3-pentenenitrile, the at least one catalyst, and 2- methyl-3-butenenitrile; (c) the flow (3) is distilled in a column to obtain a top product flow (4) containing 1,3-butadiene, a flow (5) in a side-tap of t he column, containing 3-pentenenitrile and 2-methyl-3-butenenitrile, and a bott om product flow (6) containing the at least one catalyst; and (d) the flow (5) is distilled to obtain a top product flow (7) containing 2-methyl-3- butenenitrile, and a bottom product flow (8) containing 3-pentenenitrile.

    Abstract: A process for the removal of water from a mixture comprising water and zinc chloride, which comprises adding to said mixture comprising water and zinc chloride an aprotic, polar diluent whose boiling point in the case where an azeotrope is not formed between said diluent and water under the pressure conditions of the distillation mentioned below is higher than the boiling point of water and which is in liquid form at this boiling point of water or which forms an azeotrope or heteroazeotrope with water under the pressure and temperature conditions of the distillation mentioned below, and distilling the mixture comprising water, zinc chloride and the diluent with removal of water or said azeotrope or said heteroazeotrope from this mixture, giving an anhydrous mixture comprising zinc chloride and said diluent.

    Abstract: A process for dewatering hydrocyanic acid by distillation, which includes distilling crude hydrocyanic acid containing from 50 to 99.9% by weight of HCN, from 0.1 to 40% by weight of water, from 0 to 15% by weight of carbon oxides and optionally from 0.01 to 1% by weight of an involatile stabilizer, at a pressure of from 1 bar to 2.5 bar, a bottom temperature of from 100° C. to 130° C. and a top temperature of from 25° C. to 54° C., in the absence of a volatile stabilizer, in a distillation column to obtain a top draw stream containing purified, anhydrous hydrocyanic acid and carbon oxides and a bottom draw stream including water and, optionally, the involatile stabilizer.

    Abstract: A process for the recovery of a Lewis acid from a reaction mixture prepared by hydrocyanation of an olefinically unsaturated compound to form a nitrile that under certain conditions of quantities, pressure and temperature exhibit a miscibility gap with water, in the presence of a catalyst system containing a Lewis acid and a complex compound comprises phase separation and distillation. A process for the recovery of a Lewis acid from a reaction mixture (I), prepared by hydrocyanation of an olefinically unsaturated compound to form a nitrile that under certain conditions of quantities, pressure and temperature exhibit a miscibility gap with water, in the presence of a catalyst system containing a Lewis acid and a complex compound comprising a phosphorous containing ligand and a central atom is characterized in that: (a) the complex compound is separated from the mixture (I) to yield a mixture (II); (b) mixing of the mixture (II) with water under pressure and temperature to form a phase (III) that contains a higher water content than the nitrile and a phase (IV) having a higher nitrile content than water whereby the phase (III) has a higher content of Lewis acid than phase (IV); (c) mixing of the phase (III) with a liquid diluent (V) that does not form an azeotrope with water and whose b.pt. is higher than that of water or under certain conditions of pressure forms an azeotrope or a heteroazeotrope with water; (d) distillation of the mixture of (III) and (V) to yield a mixture (VI) having a higher water content than the diluent (V) and a mixture (VII) having a higher diluent (V) content than water whereby the mixture (VII) has a higher Lewis acid content than the mixture (VI) and; (e) addition of the mixture (VII) to a hydrocyanation of an olefinically unsaturated compound to form a nitrile that under certain conditions of quantities, pressure and temperature exhibit a miscibility gap with water, in the presence of a catalyst system containing a Lewis acid and a complex compound comprising a phosphorous containing ligand and a central atom.
