Provided is a method for efficiently producing an oxime, which is a method for producing an oxime by oxidizing, an amine, the method comprising a first contact step and a second contact step, wherein the second contact step is performed by bringing an additional amine into contact with oxygen in the presence of at least a part of an oxidation product obtained in the first contact step.

A bisoxime ester photoinitiator as represented by general formula (I). By introducing a bisoxime ester group and a cycloalkylalkyl group into the chemical structure, this photoinitiator not only has excellent performance in aspects of storage stability, photosensitivity, developability, pattern integrity, and the like, but also exhibits obviously improved photosensitivity and thermal stability compared to similar photoinitiators. ##STR00001##

In a process for oxidizing a feed comprising cyclohexylbenzene, the feed is contacted with oxygen and an oxidation catalyst in a plurality of reaction zones connected in series, the contacting being conducted under conditions being effective to oxidize part of the cyclohexylbenzene in the feed to cyclohexylbenzene hydroperoxide in each reaction zone. At least one of the plurality of reaction zones has a reaction condition that is different from another of the plurality of reaction zones. The different reaction conditions may include one or more of (a) a progressively decreasing temperature and (b) a progressively increasing oxidation catalyst concentration as the feed flows from one reaction zone to subsequent reaction zones in the series.
