Reaction Steps

The same procedures as in Production Example 3 are carried out except that glycerol is replaced with 292.1 g (2.18 mol) of trimethylolpropane, 6-undecanone is replaced with 474.0 g (8.17 mol) of acetone, and the amount of paratoluenesulfonic acid monohydrate is changed to 6.0 g (0.0315 mol) and the amount of hexane is changed to 900 ml to give 5-hydroxymethyl-5-ethyl-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane.
