Procedure

A 100 mL three neck round bottom flask, equipped with a stir bar, thermometer and a Dean-Stark trap, was charged with 10 g (55 mmoles) of cyclododecanone, 6.7 g (77 mmoles) of morpholine, 40 mL of anhydrous toluene and a catalytic amount of p-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate. The reaction mixture was refluxed for 48-77 hours. The toluene was removed under vacuum, and the reaction mixture was vacuum distilled to give 5.7 g of N-morpholino-1-cyclododecene (at 160°-168° C./0.5mm) as a 95% pure clear liquid.
