Procedure

A mixture of 40.0 g (83 mmol) of di-(2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-4-yl) sebacate, 2.0 g of molybdenum oxide, and 250 ml of ethylbenzene is heated to 110° C. (nitrogen atmosphere). A commercially available solution of 70% t-butyl hydroperoxide in water (64.3 g, 499 mmol) is added dropwise over 30 min. Water is collected in a Dean-Stark trap. Heating is continued for 90 minutes after the addition. The reaction mixture is filtered and evaporated. The resulting crude oil is dissolved in heptane (300 ml), and this solution is passed through a short column of silica gel. The first 350 ml of filtrate, nearly pure by TLC, is evaporated to give 41.7 g (70% yield) of the title compound, a viscous oil.
