253 g (1 mol) of 3-methyl-12-phenyl-1-aza-1,5,9-cyclododecatriene is dissolved in 2 liters of cyclohexane, and the solution is hydrogenated at 20°-25° C. under an initial pressure of 100 bars, in the presence of 40 g of rhodium/aluminium oxide, for 4 hours in a steel autoclave. After distilling off the solvent, there is obtained as the main fraction 242 g (0.94 mol) of 3-methyl-12-phenyl-1-aza-cyclododecene as a cis-trans isomeric mixture; b.p. 112° C./4 Pa.
