The oxidation procedure of Example I was repeated except that only 40 gms cobalt (II) acetate was employed. Also, for this reaction 40 gms methylethyl ketone and 72 gms butane were charged to the reactor. Eighty percent conversion of the tolylstearic acid was achieved after only four hours reaction (105° C. and 350 psig O2). Carboxyphenylstearic acid was obtained in 47.9% yield.
