I Think that using graphite oxide powder as oxide we could produce diamonds at 5.000 degree celsius because

the graphite is similar to diamond

I had never heard of graphite oxide before, so thanks for that.

It is an interesting compound. But I will leave others to comment on how it might behave in this context. 

I am fairly certain it won’t produce diamonds though, as this requires very high pressure.
