Abstract
This invention provides a method for producing cyclohexanone from cyclohexanol using oxidative dehydrogenation. More particularly, this invention comprises adding a certain amount of a gaseous oxidant to the cyclohexanol feed stream; and, converting the cyclohexanol to cyclohexanone over a CuO-ZnO catalyst.
