A method is useful for the continuous production of ketones from a compound with at least one epoxide group in at least one fixed bed reactor. A catalyst composition is used with at least one noble metal and at least one metal oxide. To reduce the proportions of high-boilers which form in the reaction, an inert gas is introduced so that a carbon monoxide partial pressure of 50 mbar or less is set in the reactor.

The present invention relates to a method for the reactivation of homogeneous catalyst systems from organic reaction mixtures. The catalyst systems are suitable for the oxidation of organic compounds such as, for example, cyclododecene. The reactivation is carried out using an aqueous base.

Provided are methods of producing carbonyl compounds (e.g., carbonyl containing compounds) and catalysts for producing carbonyl compounds. Also provided are methods of making polymers from carbonyl compounds and polymers formed from carbonyl compounds. A method may produce carbonyl compounds, such as, for example ,-disubstituted carbonyl compounds (e.g., ,-disubstituted -lactones). The polymers may be produced from ,-disubstituted -lactones, which may be produced by a method described herein.
