Procedure

The same procedure as in Example 12 was repeated except that a barium salt of dodecanedioic acid monomethyl ester (20 mmol) was used instead of the barium salt of pentadecanedioic acid monomethyl ester, and the amount of the catalyst was 0.31 g to obtain ω-hydroxy dodecanoic acid. The yield was 37%.
