Procedure: Example 3 was carried out by adding 1% by weight of 1,4-divinyloxybutane as cocatalyst. The amount of ethyne taken up was 0.97 mol per mole of ε-caprolactam. The distillative workup yielded N-vinyl-ε-caprolactam in a yield of 85.0%. A liquid distillation residue was obtained.

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: Example 1 was carried out without addition of a cocatalyst. The amount of ethyne taken up was 0.69 mol per mole of ε-caprolactam. The distillative workup yielded N-vinyl-ε-caprolactam in a yield of 77.9%. A viscid distillation residue was obtained. Example 1 was carried out without addition of a cocatalyst
