The present invention relates to a process for converting hydrocarbon-based compounds comprising at least one nitrile function to compounds comprising at least one carboxylic function, and also to a process for obtaining ester compounds from the resulting carboxylic compounds. The process comprises reacting the nitrile compound with a basic hydroxyl compound in solution in a solvent at a temperature of 80°C to 200°C, removing the ammonia formed, reacting the resulting salt with an inorganic acid and then recovering the compound comprising at least one carboxylic function and, optionally, esterifying the resulting acids by reacting same with an alcohol. |
