Procedure

Cyclododecanone was prepared by the same reaction procedures and reactor as in Example 4, except that the fed liquid reaction mixture comprised 98.8% by weight of 1,2-epoxy-5,9-cyclododecadiene, 0.70% by weight of lithium iodide (corresponding to 0.95 molar % based on the molar amount of 1,2-epoxy-5,9-cyclododecadiene) and the balance consisting of impurities.
