A mixture of 0.445 g of 4-t-butyltoluene, 0.016 g of hexahydro-1,3,5-trihydroxy-1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-trione (3% by mole relative to 4-t-butyltoluene), 5 g of acetic acid and 0.004 g of cobalt(II) acetate.4H2O was stirred at 100° C. in an atmosphere of oxygene gas (1 atm=0.1 MPa) for 2 hours. The resulting product in the reaction mixture was analyzed by gas chromatography and was found to yield 4-t-butylbenzoic acid and 4-t-butylbenzaldehyde in 97% and 1% yields, respectively, at 100% conversion of 4-t-butyltoluene.
