PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF ADAMANTYL (METH)ACRYLATES

摘要

A process for producing adamantyl (meth)acrylates or (meth)acrylates having lactone ring skeletons from adamantyl alcohols or alcohols having lactone ring skeletons and (meth)acrylic acid or reactive derivatives thereof, which comprises subjecting the product obtained by reacting the above cyclic alcohol with (meth)acrylic acid or a reactive derivative thereof to molecular distillation to recover formed (meth)acrylate of the cyclic alcohol as the distillate. This process makes it possible to produce efficiently high-quality (meth)acrylates of the cyclic alcohols little containing impurities.
