The suspension is stirred at ambient temperature and methyl vinyl ketone (5.02 gm., 0.072 mole) is added. The solution which becomes warm initially, is stirred at ambient temperature for 4 hours. Then, the stirring solution is treated with methyl vinyl ketone (0.3 ml.) and triton-B (0.6 ml.) every 4 hours for the next twenty hours.
