Procedure

Then, 59.1 g (0.405 mole) of adipic acid, 43.7 g (0.405 mole) of adiponitrile and 26.8 g (0.154 mole) of dimethyl adipate were added to the liquid distillation residue and the resulting mixture was introduced into the autoclave mentioned above. Thereafter, reaction was carried out in the same manner as above. As a result of distillation, there were obtained 120.0 g (0.851 mole) of methyl cyanovalerate and 25.6 g (0.147 mole) of dimethyl adipate (Repeated Experiment 1). Subsequently, by the same procedure as above, the same amount of adipic acid as used in Repeated Experiment 1 and adiponitrile in an amount as shown in Table 3 were added to the liquid distillation residue obtained by distilling off methyl cyanovalerate and dimethyl adipate, and the reaction and distillation were repeated (Repeated Experiments 2-5). The results are shown in Table 3.
