Procedure

The autoclave described above was charged with 17 g of ME containing 1-octene as compound to be oxidized and having the following composition (in % by weight including catalyst): 54% of 1-octene, 7.7% of Igepal, 1.9% of Triton 100, 19.2% of n-propanol, 10.7% of water and 0.8% of PdCl2 /5.7% of Fe(NO3)3 as catalyst. The oxidation was carried out for 6 hours at 50° C. and 1 bar using pure oxygen. Methyl hexyl ketone was obtained as product. The selectivity was 54% at a conversion of 14%.
