    Abstract: Method for preparing caprolactam by heating 6-aminocapric acid nitrile in the presence of heterogeneous catalysts ans water under elevated pressure, wherein (a) 6-aminocapric acid nitrile or a mixture containing essentially 6aminocapric acid nitrile as well as water and a low-boiling or a high-boiling alcohol is heated in the presence of a heterogeneous catalyst in a reactor A to produce a mixture (I); then (b) mixture (I) is distilled, yielding a head fraction, caprolactam and a bottom product, with any ammonia in mixture (I) being removed prior to distillation; and then (c1) the head fraction is fed into the reactor of step (a), with the head fraction optionally being mixed with the alcohol and/or water and/or 6-aminocapric nitrile used in step (a) before being fed into reactor (A); or (c2) the head fraction, optionally with the bottom product from step (b), is fed into a reactor (B), the first fraction optionally being mixed with the alcohol and/or water and/or 6aminocapric acid nitrile before being fed into reactor (B), and then analogously to step (b) caprolactam is produced by distillation; and either (d1) the bottom product from step (b) is fed into reactor A of step (a); or (d2) optionally water and possibly a low-boiling or a high-boiling alcohol are added to the bottom product which then, analogously to step (a) is heated in a reactor (C) to give a reaction product which is distilled to yield caprolactam; or (d3) water is added to the bottom product which is heated in a reactor (D) without added catalyst to give a reaction product which is distilled to yield caprolactam; or (d4) water and a base are added to the bottom product which is heated in reactor (E) to give a reaction product which is distilled to yield caprolactam.

    Abstract: An improved process for the preparation of caprolactam by heating 6-aminocapronitrile in the presence of a heterogenous catalyst and water under superatmospheric pressure without rapid deactivation of the catalysts used. The process further includes the addition of a low or high boiling alcohol in the heating phase, after which the products are obtained by distillation. The process further includes a method of working up the top and bottom products of the reactors to achieve higher yields.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for simultaneous production of 6-aminocapronitrile and hexamethylenediamine from adipodinitrile, comprising the following steps: a) hydrogenating adipodinitrile in the presence of a catalyst containing an element of the VIII subgroup thereby obtaining a mixture containing 6-aminocapronitrile, hexamethylenediamine, adipodinitrile and high boilers; b) distillative separation of hexamethylenediamine from the mixture containing 6-aminocapronitrile, hexamethylenediamine, adipodinitrile and high boilers or c1) distillative separating 6-aminocapronitrile and subsequently d1) distillative separation of adipodinitrile or c2) simultaneous distillative separation of 6-aminocapronitrile and adipodinitrile into separate fractions. The invention is characterized in that temperatures in the bottoms of the column in steps d1) or c2) are under 185 DEG C. The adipodinitrile thus obtained contains less impurities than for instance 1-amino-2-cyanocyclopentenes.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for removing, by distillation, 6-aminocapronitrile from mixtures that contain 6-aminocapronitrile, adipodinitrile and hexamethylenediamine, by a) removing the hexamethylenediamine from the mixture while obtaining a mixture (I) that has a hexamethylenediamine content of less than 1 wt. -%, b) removing completely or partially the 6-aminocapronitrile from mixture (I) while obtaining a mixture (II) whose content in substances that have a higher boiling point as 6-aminocapronitrile under distillation conditions and that cannot be formed by dimerization reactions when 6-aminocapronitrile is thermally treated is less than 1 wt. -%, and c) completely or partially removing from mixture (II) the hexamethylenediamine that might be present while obtaining a mixture (IV) whose hexamethylenediamine content is higher than that of mixture (II), and a mixture (V) whose hexamethylenediamine content is lower than that of mixture (II).

    Abstract: The invention concerns the simultaneous preparation of caprolactam and hexamethylene diamine from adipodinitrile, by the following steps: (a) the adipodinitrile is partially hydrogenated, producing a mixture substantially containing 6-aminocapronitrile, hexamethylene diamine, ammonia, adipodinitrile and hexamethylene imine ( "the mixture"); (b) the mixture obtained in step (a) is distilled, producing ammonia, as the forerunnings, and a residue I, in the presence of a compound A which is inert in the distillation conditions, the ammonia not being separated totally; (c) the residue I, substantially containing 'the mixture", inert compound A and ammonia, the ammonia content being less than that of the mixture used in step (b), is subjected to a second distillation, producing a mixture of the inert compound A and ammonia, as the forerunnings, and a residue II; (d) the base II, substantially containing "the mixture" and inert compound A, is subjected to distillation in a third column, producing the inert compound A, as the forerunnings, and a residue III; (e) the base III, substantially containing "the mixture" and optionally an inert compound B, is subjected to distillation in a fourth column, producing forerunnings KP, which substantially contain hexamethylene imine, optionally inert compound B and hexamethylene diamine, and a residue IV; (f) the forerunnings KP are subjected in a fifth column to distillation, producing forerunnings KP2, which substantially contain hexamethylene imine and optionally inert compound B, and a residue V, which substantially contains hexamethylene diamine with a degree of purity of at least 95 %, the forerunnings KP2 being fed to the third column or optionally only partially fed to the third column, and the rest being discarded; and (g) the residue IV, substantially containing 6-aminocapronitrile and adipodinitrile, is subjected in a sixth column to distillation, producing 6-aminocapronitrile with a degree of purity of at least 95 %, as forerunnings, and adiponitrile in the residue. The resultant 6-aminocapronitrile is cyclized to form caprolactam. 7 claims, 1 figure
