Vorschrift

A mixture of 0.276 g of toluene, 0.005 g of hexahydro-1,3,5-trihydroxy-1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-trione (1% by mole relative to toluene), 5 g of acetic acid and 0.004 g of cobalt(II) acetate.4H2O was stirred at 60° C. in an atmosphere of oxygene gas (1 atm=0.1 MPa) for 6 hours. The resulting product in the reaction mixture was analyzed by gas chromatography and was found to yield benzoic acid and benzaldehyde in 49% and 3% yields, respectively, at 53% conversion of toluene.
