Procedure

Example 1 was repeated except that 100 ml of methyl isobutyl ketone was used instead of 100 ml of dichlo-romethane, to obtain 7.6 g of benzyloxyacetaldehyde and 5.5 g of 2-benzyloxyethanol (yield of benzyloxyacetaldehyde based on the 2-benzyloxyethanol that had reacted: 79.5%, ratioof recoveryof2-benzyloxyethanol: 36.3%).
