This invention is concerned with the preparation of long-chain carboxylic acids and alcohols from cyclododecanone and acyl chlorides. More specifically, this invention relates to a process for the preparation of 1-triacontanol, CH3(CH2)28CH2OH. Triacontanol acts as a growth stimulant on a wide range of plants to increase dry weight gains, water uptake, water use efficiency and protein synthesis in treated plants.
