Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-1 (38 g, 0.239 mol) in 500 mL benzene was added ethylene glycol (17.3 mL, 0.310 mol) and p-toluenesulfonic acid (1 g). The mixture was heated at reflux for 2 h with azeotropic removal of water. After cooling, the solution was washed with 200 mL sat. NaHCO3, brine, and dried over Na2SO4. Evaporative removal of the solvent gave 4-2 as a yellow oil.
