Abstract
In a distillation process 2-pyrrolidones obtained from succinonitrile are purified by treating the impure liquid pyrrolidone with a strong base, fractionally distilling this product to yield, as distillate, polymerization grade purified 2-pyrrolidone, mixing the 2-pyrrolidone-containing residue from the fractional distillation with water and an acid, and extracting purified 2-pyrrolidone from the water/acid mixture. The latter purified 2-pyrrolidone products are suitable for recycling to the pyrrolidone synthesis or to make other products.
