description This paper presents a not previously reported catalytic system consisting of transition metals Co<sup>2+</sup> and Mn<sup>2+</sup> and alkyl nitrites R-ONO for the oxidation of cyclohexanone with oxygen to adipic acid. The influence of type and amount of catalyst, temperature, time, and type of raw material on conversion and product composition were determined. In addition, the oxidation of selected cyclic ketones such as cyclopentanone, cyclohexanone, cyclooctanone, cyclododecanone, 2-methylcyclohexanone, 3-methylcyclohexanone, and 4-methylcyclohexanone in acetic acid as solvent was performed. The results showed that R-ONO systems, under established reaction conditions, form NO·radicals, which oxidize to NO<sub>2</sub> under a strong oxidization reaction environment. The Co<sup>2+</sup>/Mn<sup>2+</sup>/NO<sub>2</sub> system was shown to be highly active in the oxidation of cyclic ketones with oxygen.
