He also reported the Beckmann rearrangement-cyclization sequence, which was employed in his straightforward synthesis of muscopyridine.
These reagents were successfully utilized for the selective alkylation of cyclic ketones and aldehydes to generate equatorial alcohol and an anti-Cram type product, respectively, for discrimination between two different ethers, aldehydes, ketones, or esters by complexations, for trans- and cis-selective Claisen rearrangement, for regioselective Diels-Alder reaction, and for new epoxide-aldehyde rearrangement.

Most commercial production of caprolactam is via the cyclohexanone oximation and Beckmann rearrangement route.
Because this process involves use of oleum for the Beckmann rearrangement, followed by neutralization with ammonia or ammonium hydroxide, the process generates large quantities of ammonium sulfate as a waste.
The caprolactam is purified by vacuum crystallization or vacuum distillation but small quantities (ppm) of ammonium sulfate remain and contaminate the aqueous caprolactam solution product.
