Abstract

The invention discloses a process for preparation of caprolactam from cyclic ketones through liquid phase rearrangement reaction in ionic liquid and at the presence of phosphorus-containing compounds as the catalyst, wherein the ionic liquid, organic solvent non-dissolving to the ionic liquids and acidic phosphorus-containing compound catalyst are mixed under stirring condition, dissolving the catalyst into the ionic liquid phase, heating the obtained two phase catalytic system to a rearrangement reaction temperature, charging the cyclic ketones or solution into the catalytic system for reaction, then subjecting to stewing and phase-splitting.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing caprolactam through Beckmann rearrangement reaction of cyclohexanone oxime. More specifically, it relates to a method for preparing caprolactam through a liquid-phase Beckmann rearrangement reaction of cyclohexanone oxime in an ionic liquid, using a phosphorus-containing compound as a catalyst. technical background [0002] Caprolactam is an important organic chemical raw material with wide application. About 90% of caprolactam in the world is prepared from cyclohexanone oxime through Beckmann rearrangement reaction. The traditional Beckmann rearrangement reaction process is: use fuming sulfuric acid to make cyclohexanone oxime form caprolactam salt of sulfuric acid, and in order to obtain a high yield of caprolactam, it is necessary to add excess sulfuric acid, and then neutralize the mixture with ammonia water to obtain ammonium sulfate and caprolactam . In this way 0.5 moles of ammonium sulfate will...
