Cycloheptanone is still produced by the cyclization and decarboxylation of suberic acid or suberic acid esters. This reaction is typically conducted in the gas phase at 400 – 450 °C over alumina doped with zinc oxide or cerium oxide.<ref name="ketones">{{Ullmann | author = Siegel, H.; Eggersdorfer, M. | title = Ketones | doi = 10.1002/14356007.a15_077}}</ref> Cycloheptanone is still produced by the cyclization and decarboxylation of suberic acid or suberic acid esters.
