Abstract

The invention relates to a method for separating a mixture containing at least one carboxylic acid vinyl ester of general formula R′—C(O)O—CH═CH2 and at least one carboxylic acid of general formula R′—COOH, wherein R′ in either case can be an aliphatic group having 12 to 22 C atoms or a cycloaliphatic group having 12 to 22 C atoms, or an aromatic group having 12 to 22 C atoms, and R′ can be identical or different, characterized in that the carboxylic acid is converted to its anhydride R′—C(O)—O—C(O)—R′ and the carboxylic acid vinyl ester is subsequently separated.
