Vorschrift

A mixture of 0.351 g of p-tolunitrile, 0.005 g of hexahydro-1,3,5-trihydroxy-1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-trione (1% by mole relative to p-tolunitrile), 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 14 hours. The resulting product in the reaction mixture was analyzed by gas chromatography and was found to yield 4-cyanobenzoic acid and 4-cyanobenzaldehyde in 74% and 1% yields, respectively, at 81% conversion of p-tolunitrile.
