Versuchsvorschrift
To a 100 ml flask containing 11.32 g of ε-caprolactam (0.1 mol), 30 ml benzene was added and stirred for dissolution. Then 9.45 g of chloroacetic acid (0.1 mol) in 20 ml benzene was added dropwise into the flask over 20 min at room temperature. Then the reaction was stirred for another 7 hours. Desired product was formed after benzene was removed under reduced pressure and dried at 110° C. under 1–5 mmHg for 1 hour. The yellowish, moisture- and water-stable liquid of caprolactam chloroacetate was obtained with a yield of 95.9%, which has an ionic conductivity of 2.9×10−5 S/cm, a glass transition temperature of −67° C., and a Hammett acidic scale H0 of 5.03 using methyl yellow as indicator. After several days, it changed into a yellowish solid with melting point of 29° C.
