A mixture of 1.00 g of cyclohexane, 0.063 g of hexahydro-1,3,5-trihydroxy-1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-trione (3% by mole relative to cyclohexane), 29.0 g of acetic acid, 0.015 g of cobalt(II) acetate.4H2O and 0.015 g of manganese(II) acetate.4H2O was stirred at 100° C. in an atmosphere of oxygene gas (1 atm=0.1 MPa) for 8 hours. The resulting product in the reaction mixture was analyzed by gas chromatography and was found to yield cyclohexanon, adipic acid and glutaric acid in 1%, 42% and 13% yields, respectively, at 79% conversion of cyclohexane.
