A solution of 37.1 g (0.256 mol) of methyl 6-aminocaproate in 723 g of mesitylene is stirred under reflux at 140° C./500 bar for 12 h. Evaporating off the mesitylene under reduced pressure leaves 46.4 g of a caprolactam-acetylene mixture which, according to HPLC, contains 58.2% of caprolactam, which corresponds to 27.0 g (0.239 mol) and a yield of 93.4%.
