With sum formula it makes no sense. Please write again in structure formula.
So nobody knows what you mean. You have HNO3 on both sides, makes also no sense.

Cyclohexanol -> Adipic Acid?

Ultimately

Code: Select all

3C6H11OH + 8HNO3 = 3 (COOH)(CH2)4COOH + 8NO + 7H2O
, but the process requires several managed substages to acheive a useful yeild.
