Abstract

Method B.-The diethyl acetal was prepared as indicated above but was not neutralized with sodium ethoxide. Instead, the benzene was distilled off to remove ethyl formate and ethanol from the reaction mixture (more benzene may be required to bring the distillate temperature to 81') and the crude residue was then subjected to method A.
