According to a first embodiment of the invention, an oxide of a hydrocarbon compound can be produced with high yield and high productivity by oxidizing the hydrocarbon compound with molecular oxygen to produce a ketone and/or an alcohol, said method comprising:
(a) oxidizing the hydrocarbon compound at a temperature of 160°C or less to obtain the corresponding hydroperoxide;
(b) decomposing the hydroperoxide to obtain the corresponding ketone and alcohol; and
(c) transferring the reaction solution obtained by the step (a) to a unit in which the step (b) is carried out;
wherein a reacting unit for carrying out at least the final stage reaction in the step (a) and a transferring unit for the step (c) have an inner surface formed by a material from which no transition metal ion is generated. According to another embodiment of the invention, an apparatus for oxidizing a hydrocarbon compound with molecular oxygen to produce a ketone and/or an alcohol comprises:
a reacting unit for oxidizing the hydrocarbon compound to obtain the corresponding hydroperoxide;
a decomposing unit for decomposing the hydroperoxide to obtain the corresponding ketone and alcohol; and
a transferring unit for transferring the reaction solution obtained by the reacting unit to the decomposing unit;
wherein a reacting unit for carrying out at least the final stage reaction the reacting unit and the transferring unit have an inner surface formed by a material from which no transition metal ion is generated. |
