    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

    Abstract: The invention relates to the preparation of aliphatic -aminonitriles by partial hydrogenation of aliphatic dinitriles at elevated temperature and higher pressure, in the presence of a solvent and catalyst. Catalyst, containing the following is used: (a) compound based on metal, e.g. nickel, cobalt, iron, ruthenium and rhodium; (b) from 0.01 to 25 wt.% promotor to component (a) based on metal such as palladium, platinum, iridium, osmium, copper, silver, gold, chromium, molybdenum, tungsten, manganese, rhenium, zinc, cadmium, lead, aluminium, tin, phosphorus, arsenic, antimony, bismith, silicon, titanium, zirconium and the rare earth elements, and (c) from 0 to 5 wt.% compound to component (a) based on alkali or alkaliearth metal, provided that component (a) is different from an iron-based compound or from iron, as well as from the metals cobalt, ruthenium or rhodium when component (b) is promotor based on a metal from the group containing titanium, managanese, chromium and molybdenum. An additional condition is that when component (a) is a compound based on ruthenium or rhodium separately, or of ruthenium and rhodium, or of nickel and rhodium, promotor (b) can optionally be dropped. 8 claims
