Abstract

Organic sulfoxides such as dimethylsulfoxide are used in the transformation of alicyclic ketoximes into the corresponding lactams according to the Beckmann rearrangement in the presence of a strong acid cation exchange resin as disclosed. Thus cyclohexanone is dissolved in DMSO and contacted with a sulfonated copolymer of styrene and divinyl benzene to produce caprolactam in a continuous process.
