U.S. Pat. No. 3,025,306 describes this reaction as
It is disclosed that the process is carried out in the presence of 5 balt, manganese, etc. However, this method has the disadvantage that it produces many oxidative decomposition products such as adipic acid and has low aldehyde utilization efficiency. The present inventors have developed caprolactone with high yield and high 30%
As a result of studies aimed at manufacturing with high selectivity, it was discovered that dissolving a soluble chromium compound in the reaction system improves the selectivity of caprolactone while maintaining a sufficient oxygen absorption rate, and completed the present invention.

However, a reaction solvent may be used if desired. As the reaction solvent, a carboxylic acid produced by the reaction can be used. Moreover, an organic solvent inert to the oxidation reaction can also be used. Examples of such organic solvents include hydrocarbons such as hexane, cyclohexane, and benzene; ketones such as acetone and methyl ethyl ketone; ethyl acetate,
Examples include esters such as methyl benzoate; nitrites such as acetonitrile and benzonitrile. The oxidation reaction of the present invention is carried out using molecular oxygen as an oxidizing agent. Molecular oxygen is supplied in the form of pure oxygen, air, air with increased oxygen concentration, or a mixed gas of oxygen and an inert gas (carbon dioxide, nitrogen, etc.). The reaction temperature is selected from the range of -20 to 150°C.

As the reaction temperature increases, the conversion rate of cyclohexanone increases, but at the same time, the yield of undesirable by-products such as adipic acid increases, so the selectivity for ε-caprolactone decreases. Therefore, the preferred reaction temperature is 10 to 120°C, especially 3
The temperature is 0 to 80°C.

The reaction pressure is usually selected from the range of atmospheric pressure to 30 kg/c:il, but it is of course possible to carry out the reaction outside this range. The reaction is carried out in the presence of dissolved chromium compounds. Soluble chromium compounds usually include chromium naphthenate, chromium acetylacetone, chromate ester,
Although chromyl chloride or the like is used, other chromium compounds that are soluble in the reaction system can also be used. The concentration of soluble chromium compounds in the reaction system is usually 0.001 to 50% as chromium.
0 (weight) fermentation, preferably in the range of 0.2 to 20 kg. The reaction can be carried out either batchwise or continuously.
