Procedure
nitrocyclohexanone process in which cyclohexanone is acetylated to obtain cyclohexenyl acetate, the obtained cyclohexenyl acetate is nitrated to obtain 2-nitrocyclohexanone, the obtained 2-nitrocyclohexanone is subjected to hydrolysis, thereby causing ring cleavage of the 2-nitrocyclohexanone to obtain nitrocapronic acid, the obtained nitrocapronic acid is hydrogenated to obtain ε-aminocapronic acid, and the obtained ε-aminocapronic acid is converted into ε-caprolactam.
