Procedure

Cyclododecane (1.66 g; 9.88 mmol), t-butylnitrite (2 mmol), N-hydroxyphthalimide (0.4 mmol), and acetic acid (2 ml) were placed in a flask and were stirred at 80° C. in an atmosphere of argon gas for 1 hour. The resulting mixture was further treated with zinc chloride (20 mg) with stirring at 80° C. for 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was neutralized with sodium hydroxide and was then analyzed to find that cyclododecanone oxime, nitrocyclododecane, and cyclododecanone were formed in yields of 35%, 7%, and 3%, respectively.
