Procedure

The same procedures as described in Example were carried out by using 4.16 g (25 mM) of.4-n-butylcatechol, 15 ml of acetone, 30 mg of p-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate and 7 ml of benzene. 5-n-Butyl-2,2-dimethyl 1,3 benzodioxol was obtained in the yield of 4.74 g (23 mM) as colorless transparent liquid having a boiling point of 74°-75° C./1 mmHg.
