p-Toluenesulfonic acid (0.86 g) was added to a mixture of (R)-3-chloro-1,2-propanediol (50.13 g, 0.454 mol, optical purity 98.7% e.e.) and acetone (660 ml) and the resulting mixture was stirred for 12 hours at 25C. After completion of the reaction, acetone was removed in vacuo and the crude product was distilled to give 58.11 g of (R)-4-chloromethyl-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane (yield 85%, b.p. 63° C. at 25 mmHg).
