Reaktionsschritte

2 mmol of N-hydroxyphthalimide and 4 mmol of cumene hydroperoxide are added at a temperature of 130° C. to 200 mmol of cyclododecane in a round-bottomed flask having an attached reflux condenser. Oxygen at approximately 15 l/h is passed through the reaction mixture for 8 hours at said temperature. Cyclododecanol is obtained at a selectivity of 17% and cyclododecanone at a selectivity of 43%, at a cyclododecane conversion rate of 49%.
