摘要
2-Methyl-1,3-dioxolane-2-ethanol was prepared in 90% isolated yield from 4-hydroxy-2-butanone and ethylene glycol using a weak acid catalyst and ethyl acetate as the reaction solvent. 2-(2-Bromoethyl)-2-methyl-1,3-dioxolane was prepared in 75% isolated yield by bromination of 2-Methyl-1,3-dioxolane-2-ethanol with dibromotriphenylphosphorane. The reagent was prepared in situ by titrating triphenylphosphine with bromine at an ice-ethanol bath temperature. The target compounds are useful methyl vinyl ketone equivalents.
