Abstract

Glycerol reacts with paraformaldehyde to give a mixture of 4-hydroxymethyl-1,3-dioxolane and 5-hydroxy-1,3-dioxane. Some transformations (alkylation and replacement of the OH groups with the Cl atoms) of the synthesized compounds were performed. The differences in NMR and mass spectra of the corresponding 1,3-dioxolanes and 1,3-dioxanes were revealed and discussed.
