Cyclohexanone
OXIDATION OF CYCLOHEXANOL
TO CYCLOHEXANONE
The oxidation of cyclohexanol to cyclohexanone involves the
removal of hydrogen from the OH group. After separation and
purification, an Infrared Spectrum will be run to determine the
composition of the recovered material.
Infrared Spectroscopy is a very powerful technique used in the
determination of molecular structure and the identification of
unknown organic materials. The infrared spectrum yields direct
information about the presence or absence of key functional groups.

closed system and therefore pressure sensitive. Although the boiling
point of adipic acid is above 300°C, in the pressurized system, adipic
acid apparently came over at a lower temperature.
