Syntheses of acetals of ethylene glycol

  • Published:
Bulletin of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, Division of chemical science Aims and scope

Summary

  1. 1.

    The conditions for synthesis of β-hydroxyethylalkylacetals have been worked out.

  2. 2.

    Conditions for synthesis of dialkylacetals have been elucidated.

  3. 3.

    Their tendency towards disproportionation with further transformations has been demonstrated.

  4. 4.

    Of the 6 compounds synthesized 5 have not previously been prepared or described.

  5. 5.

    A mechanism explaining the transformations is presented.
