A new method is proposed for the synthesis of 1,4-dioxacyclohexadecane-5,16-dione by the oxidation of 13,16-dioxabicyclohexadec-1(12)-ene, obtained from 2-hydroxycyclododecanone and ethylene glycol.The action of an aqueous or alcohol solution of potassium hydroxide on 2-acetoxy- or 2-hydroxycyclododecanone leads to oxidative cleavage of the C-C bond with the formation of 1,10-decanedicarboxylic acid.
