Procedure

Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 313447/1989 discloses an addition reaction of acetic acid with cyclohexene in the presence of both ZSM-5, a high silica content-zeolite, as a catalyst and water. According to this method, the reaction temperature is 120° C. and the reaction time is 4 hours resulting in the formation of cyclohexanol in a 12.5% yield and cyclohexyl acetate at most in a 65% yield. The reaction temperature is high and the catalytic activity is low.
