1,1{{prime}}-Dihydroxydicyclohexyl peroxide is an organic compound with the formula (C₆H₁₀OH)₂O₂. It is one of the peroxides derived from the reaction of cyclohexanone and hydrogen peroxide. Upon treatment with acid and additional peroxide, it converts to the cyclic diperoxide, bis(cyclohexylidene peroxide), (C₆H₁₀)₂(O₂)₂.{{cite journal |doi=10.1021/jo00834a042|title=Macrocyclic Synthesis.
