2-(5-Oxiranyl-furan-2-yl)-[1,3]dioxolane → (5-[1,3]Dioxolan-2-yl-furan-2-yl)-acetaldehyde

Participants

Reaction Steps

The resulting 2-(5-oxiranyl-furan-2-yl)-[1,3]dioxolane (2.25 g) and silica gel (5.00 g) were suspended in ethyl acetate (40 mL), and the solution was stirred for 6.5 hours at room temperature. The reaction solution was filtered, then, the filtrate was evaporated in vacuo, and (5-[1,3]dioxolan-2-yl-furan-2-yl)-acetaldehyde (1.57 g) was obtained as a yellow oil.
