A method for preparing lactams by cyclizing hydrolysis of a corresponding aminonitrile is described. A method for manufacturing a lactam by reacting an aminonitrile with water in the presence of a catalyst involving placing the water and the aminonitrile in contact in vapor phase, passing the mixture of vapors through a bed of catalyst arranged in at least one tube forming a reaction chamber and recovering the lactam at the outlet of the tube is also described. |
