Procedure

A solution of 2-methylcyclohexanone (11.1 g, 0.099 mol) in chloroform (15 ml) was added during 20 minutes, under nitrogen, to a stirred suspension of m-chloroperbenzoic acid (24.6 g, 0.143 mol) in chloroform (250 ml). After 3 hours, 40 minutes, the mixture was poured into aqueous sodium bicarbonate and extracted with methylene chloride. The extract was washed with brine, dried (MgSO4) and concentrated. The residue was distilled from a small amount of K2CO3 to give 9.58 g, bp 78°-79° C. (2.5-3 mm Hg) of 6-hydroxyheptanoic acid, ε-lactone.
