Abstract

The preparation of tetrahalo ethers suitable for dehalogenation to divinyl ethers by bromination of aldehydes was extremely limited in scope. Consequently, dehydrohalogenation was the general method for preparation of further compounds in this class. The synthesis of the diisopropenyl ether (IV) and dipropenyl ether (V) was accomplished by adding the p-chloro ether to hot potassium hydroxide and removal of the ...
