Procedure
Optically active 4-cyano-4-methyl-3-hydroxy-1-pentanol (500 mg, 3.49 mmol) was dissolved in 2,2-dimethoxypropane (5 mL) and p-toluenesulfonic acid (50 mg) was added. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 min. Thereto was added a powder of potassium carbonate (100 mg) to neutralize the reaction mixture. The mixture was filtrated and concentrated under reduced pressure to give optically active 4-(1-cyano-1-methylethyl)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane (614 mg, 3.35 mmol) (yield relative to optically active 4-cyano-4-methyl-3-hydroxy-1-pentanol: 96%).
