Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4 ml (31 mmol) of n-hexane, 0.03 mmol of 4-dodecyloxycarbonyl-N-hydroxyphthalimide, 0.0003 mmol of acetylacetonatocobalt(II) and 0.003 mmol of manganese(II) acetate was stirred at 100° C. in an atmosphere of air (10 atm=1 MPa) for 2 hours and thereby yielded 0.1 mmol of 2-hexanone, 0.09 mmol of 2-hexanol, 0.04 mmol of 3-hexanone and 0.05 mmol of 3-hexanol.
