Procedure

Example 1 was repeated except that 2.5 g (30 mmoles) of sodium hydrogen carbonate was used instead of 2.6 g (15 mmoles ) of dipotassium hydrogen phosphate, to obtain 7.1 g of benzyloxyacetaldehyde and 4.5 g of 2-benzyloxyethanol (yield of benzyloxyacetaldehyde based on the 2-benzyloxyethanol that had reacted: 66.8%, ratio of recovery of 2-benzyloxyethanol: 29.6%).
