cyclodecane-1,2-dione

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: A mixture of 1.40 grams (10 millimoles) of cyclodecane, 0.13 gram (0.8 millimole) of N-hydroxyphthalimide, 0.015 gram (0.06 millimole) of Co(AA)2 and 25 milliliters of acetic acid was stirred in an oxygen atmosphere at a temperature of 100° C. for six hours. As a result, cyclodecane was transformed into cyclodecanone (yield 39%), sebacic acid (yield 48%) and cyclodecanedione (yield 5%) with a transformation rate of 96%.
