The mixture is stirred at room temperature until evolution of hydrogen ceases and then 16 g. of methyl iodide is added. The reaction mixture is refluxed for 3 hours and then cooled, diluted with water and extracted with ether. The etheral extracts are evaporated under reduced pressure to yield crude 1,1,5-trimethoxy-2,6-dimethylheptane which can be purified by distillation or chromatography on Florisil.
