Detection of cyclohexyl hydroperoxide as an intermediate in Gif type oxidation of cyclohexane to cyclohexanone using 13C NMR spectroscopy
Abstract
The oxidation of [1-13C]cyclohexane to cyclohexanone under GoAggII conditions is followed using 13C NMR spectroscopy; cyclohexyl hydroperoxide is an intermediate which is transformed quantitatively into cyclohexanone.
