Abstract:

Described are preferred processes for hydrolyzing substituted and unsubstituted cyanopyridines in the presence of a base and under substantially adiabatic conditions to produce pyridine substituted amides and/or pyridine substituted carboxylic acids. Preferred processes can be conducted in a variety of continuous reactors including cascades of reaction vessels, loop reactors or flow tube reactors. More preferred are the efficient and advantageous preparations of nicotinamide and niacin, which serve as important members of the B-vitamin complex.
