Procedure

The tube, catalyst and general procedure described in Example 2 were employed, with 57.0 g of methallyl acetate substituted for the allyl acetate. The effluent in this case was composed of 12.5 g of unconverted methallyl acetate (22% recovery), 27.8 g of methallyl alcohol (99% yield based on 78% conversion), 26.8 g of methyl acetate (93% yield) and the excess methanol.
