Here we show a one-pot synthesis of laurolactam from cyclododecene, without intermediate purifications, in 66% yield. If desired, the intermediate cyclododecanone oxime can also be isolated, and the procedure is applicable for the production of caprylolactam.Reconocimiento - No comercial (by-nc)Laurolactam synthesisOne-pot reactionCyclododecenePolyamide precursorsGreen chemistryCaprylolactamArtículo10.1039/D5CY01180AAbierto
