Procedure

The 2,3-dimethylbutane-2,3-diol hydrate thus obtained can already be used as such for many purposes, for example for the rearrangement in pinacolone (see, for example, Rompps Chemie Lexikon, Stuttgart 1974, page 2702). If desired, 2,3-dimethylbutane-2,3-diol can be obtained from the 2,3-dimethylbutane-2,3-diol hydrate by separating off water. Separating off the water of hydration can be effected, for example, by azeotropic dehydration.
