Procedure

A mixture of 10.5 grams (40.2 mmol) of 4-benzoyloxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine, 16.1 grams (160.8 mmol) of 90% tert-butyl hydroperoxide, 600 mg of molybdenum trioxide and 60 ml of cyclohexane is placed in a Fischer-Porter pressure bottle (nitrogen atmosphere) in an oil bath. The bath temperature is gradually increased to 135° C. over a 2.25 hour period and then maintained at 135° C. for another 2.25 hours till the red color of the N-oxyl intermediate is discharged. Solids are removed by filtration. The cyclohexane solution is washed twice with water, then with saturated sodium chloride solution and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and finally concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain an oil. Purification by flash chromatography (silica gel; 100:3 heptane:ethyl acetate) affords 12.8 grams of the title compound.
