Abstract
An improved process for producing N-vinylformamide including the steps of evaporating N-(.alpha.-substituted-ethyl)formamide or ethylidenebisformamide under reduced pressure and thermally decomposing the vapor at 150.degree.-600.degree. C., wherein the improvement comprises performing thermal decomposition by means of a pyrolysis reactor which is made up of two stages, the first being an unpacked tubular reactor constructed such that liquid flows down and the second being a packed tubular reactor, while keeping the vapor temperature at 200.degree.-400.degree. C. at the outlet of the unpacked tubular reactor and the inside temperature of the packed tubular reactor at 200.degree.-600.degree. C.
