Reaction Steps

84 g of 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran and 132 g of glycolic acid butyl ester are dissolved at room temperature. To this solution are added 0.5 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid, whereupon the temperature immediately rises to 90°. The solution is cooled to room temperature and stirred for 2 hours. After the addition of 1 g of sodium bicarbonate, the crude product is distilled under 17 Torr to obtain 2-(tetrahydropyran-2-yloxy)-acetic acid butyl ester, B.P. 127°/17 Torr.
