The possibility of the integration of the processes of H 2 O 2 generation through isopropanol partial oxidation and ammoximation of cyclohexanone with H 2 O 2 and NH 3 TS‐1 catalysed was investigated. The ammoximation of cyclohexanone over TS‐1 with isopropanol as solvent was first studied. The results show that isopropanol can be used as solvent, and the impurities in the H 2 O 2 solution obtained through isopropanol oxidation with only acetone needing to be separated have no harmful effects on the ammoximation of cyclohexanone, suggesting that the process of H 2 O 2 generation through isopropanol oxidation and the ammoximation of cyclohexanone could be directly integrated.
