Procedure

To a stirred solution of 220 g. of 2,2-dimethyl-4-(4-p-toluenesulfonyloxybutyl)-1,3-dioxolane in 800 ml. of dimethylformamide at 0° C. is added 115 g. of anhydrous lithium bromide in portions during 5 minutes. The resulting mixture is stirred at ambient temperature for 22 hours, diluted with water, and extracted with ether. The extract is washed with sodium bicarbonate solution, water, and brine; dried over magnesium sulfate; and concentrated. The residue is distilled to give a colorless liquid, b.p. 71°-74° C. (0.2 mm).
