Abstract

Monocarboxylic acids, adipic acid and epsilon caprolactone are produced by co-oxidizing cyclohexane and an aldehyde in the liquid phase in the presence of a gas containing molecular oxygen at a temperature above 45 DEG C. under such conditions that the molar ratio of aldehyde to cyclohexane in the reaction mixture at any instant does not exceed 1:10. Suitable aldehydes are, for example, iso-butyraldehyde, adipaldehyde, benzaldehyde and tolualdehyde and, particularly, acetaldehyde, propionaldehyde and n-butyraldehyde. The reaction temperature is preferably in the range 75-135 DEG C. and the pressure should be sufficient to maintain the cyclohexane and the aldehyde in the liquid phase. A liquid diluent may be present, e.g. an aliphatic carboxylic acid or ester or a ketone,if the aldehyde used is volatile. If the temperature used is below 85 DEG C. it is desirable that a catalyst should be present. The preferred catalysts are those containing one or more transition metals and may be salts of organic acids. Products of the process other than those referred to above, may be recycled.
