Reaction Steps
α-Acetoxypropionaldehyde and β-acetoxypropionic acid were identified by elemental analysis, molecular weight, and nuclear magnetic resonance studies. An authentic sample of α-acetoxypropionic acid was prepared by the addition of acetic anhydride to lactic acid [A. Golomb and P. D. Ritchie, J CHEM SOC, 838 (1962)]. The corresponding aldehyde could not be prepared by an independent method.
