The present invention generally relates to processes for the conversion of glucose to caprolactam employing chemocatalytic oxidation and reduction reactions. The present invention also includes processes for the conversion of glucose to caprolactam via amido polyhydroxy acid products and amidocaproic acid or derivatives thereof. The present invention also includes processes that catalytically oxidize an amidopolyol to amidopolyhydroxy acid or derivatives thereof, and processes that catalytically hydrodeoxygenate amino or amido polyhydroxy acid or derivatives thereof to an amino or amidocaproic acid product. The amino or amidocaproic acid product may then be converted to caprolactam. The present invention also includes products produced by such processes and products producable from such products.
本发明通常涉及利用化学催化氧化和还原反应将葡萄糖转化为己内酰胺的过程。本发明还包括通过酰胺聚羟基酸产物和酰胺己酸或其衍生物将葡萄糖转化为己内酰胺的过程。本发明还包括催化氧化酰胺聚醇为酰胺聚羟基酸或其衍生物的过程,以及催化氢解氨基或酰胺聚羟基酸或其衍生物为氨基或酰胺己酸产品的过程。然后,氨基或酰胺己酸产品可以转化为己内酰胺。本发明还包括由这些过程产生的产品以及由这些产品可生产的产品。
