Summary
A method was developed for the preparation ofγ-keto alcohols and hence 2,3-dihydrofurans by the catalytic hydrogenation of 2-furanpropanols over platinized charcoal at 220° with formation of acetic esters ofγ-keto alcohols, from which as a result of methanolysisγ-keto alcohols and dialkyldihydrofurans are formed.
