The hydroformylation of cyclododeca-1,5,9-triene is known (U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,312,742 and 3,354,229; French Pat. No. 1,411,448 or British Pat. No. 1,161,147). According to these patents, corresponding C13 -alcohols and mixtures containing formyl cyclodocane in addition to formyl cyclodecene, formyl cyclodocadiene and the C13 -alcohol can be produced from cyclododecatriene using cobalt catalysts. Even under controlled conditions, the yield of formyl cyclododecane does not exceed 40% of the theoretical. Hydroxymethyl cyclododecanes are always obtained as the main product. Even under conditions under which formyl cyclooctane is obtained in a 56.7% yield from cycloocta-1,5-diene, hydroxymethyl cyclododecane is almost exclusively formed from cyclododeca-1,5,9-triene.
