Procedure

A solution of dimethyl-1-hydroxy-5,5-dimethoxypentane-2,2-dicarboxylate made in accordance with Example I (8.4 g, 0.032 mol), p-toluenesulfonic acid (0.052 g, 0.027 mmol) in dry benzene (600 ml) was allowed to reflux through a Soxhlet extractor for 2 hours. The Soxhlet thimble was charged with Type 4 A molecular sieves (ca 20 g). After the mixture was cooled to room temperature, anhydrous potassium carbonate (7 g, 0.05 mol) was added, and the mixture was stirred for 30 min. The mixture was filtered and the solvent was removed by a rotary evaporator. The residual amber oil was distilled under reduced pressure. Yield of the product, which had a bp of 95°-100° C. (1 mmHg), was 84%.
