Procedure

To 7.5 ml of acetic acid were added 336 mg (3.0 mmol) of cyclooctane, 60 mg (0.3 mmol) of N-hydroxysaccharin and 5.3 mg (0.015 mmol) of Co(acac)3. The resultant mixture was stirred under an oxygen atmosphere at a temperature of 60° C. for 24 hours. The products in the reaction mixture were analysed by gas chromatography, with cyclooctane being transformed, with a conversion of 77.5%, into cyclooctanone (selectivity 44%, yield 34%), cyclooctanol (selectivity 6.5%, yield 5%), 1,4-cyclooctanedione (selectivity 7%, yield 5.5%) and octanediacid (selectivity 21%, yield 16%).
