The present invention is directed to a process for preparing amides. In particular, the process is directed to a process performable on the industrial scale, in which a ketoxime can be converted to a cyclic or acyclic amide by means of a Beckmann rearrangement using 2,4, 6-trichloro-1, 3, 5-triazine as a catalyst in a nonpolar organic solvent. |
