ABSTRACT:
A method for purifying N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone (NVP) is disclosed. The method comprises crystallizing NVP in the presence of added water to produce purified NVP crystals and a mother liquor, and then isolating the purified crystals. In a preferred method, 0.5 to 4 wt. % of water based on the amount of NVP to be purified is added, and the NVP crystals are washed with additional pure NVP, preferably NVP crystal melt, to give crystals having a purity greater than 99.99%. The method provides a fast, effective way to generate and isolate pure NVP in a single-stage crystallization.
