CA 2703828

The object of the present invention is a method for producing e-caprolactone in a purity greater than 99% by cyclization of 6-hydroxycaproic acid ester in the liquid phase at 150 to 400°C and 1 to 1020 hPa abs., separation and condensation of the compounds which are volatile under cyclization conditions, characterized in that the remaining sump product of the cyclization is thermally treated in at least one further reactor, volatile compounds are separated and condensed, and 6-caprolactone is obtained from the condensate by distillation.

La présente invention concerne un procédé pour produire de l'e-caprolactone pure à plus de 99 % par cyclisation d'esters de l'acide 6-hydroxycaproïque en phase gazeuse à 150-400 °C et à 1-1020 hPa (abs), par séparation et condensation des composés volatils dans des conditions de cyclisation. Le procédé est caractérisé en ce qu'on traite thermiquement le produit de queue résiduel issu de la cyclisation dans au moins un autre réacteur, en ce qu'on sépare et en ce qu'on condense les composés volatils et en ce qu'on obtient de l'e-caprolactone par distillation à partir des condensats.
