Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a process for preparing a cyclic ester or a cyclic amide, comprising the step of:

    contacting at least one hydroxycarboxylic acid and/or at least one amino-carboxylic acid; or an ester, or salt thereof; wherein said hydroxycarboxylic acid is a 2-hydroxycarboxylic acid, or a 6-hydroxycarboxylic acid; and wherein said amino carboxylic acid is a 2-amino-carboxylic acid or a 6-amino-carboxylic acid;with at least one acidic zeolite comprising: two or three interconnected and non-parallel channel systems, wherein at least one of said channel systems comprises 10-or more-membered ring channels; and a framework Si/X2 ratio of at least 24 as measured by NMR; orthree interconnected and non-parallel channel systems, wherein at least two of said channel systems comprise 10-or more-membered ring channels; and a framework Si/X2 ratio of at least 6 as measured by NMR; wherein each X is Al or B, and wherein the process is performed at a pressure between 0.5 and 20 bar.
