Reaction Steps
Into a 1 liter three-necked flask, equipped as described in Example 1, 590 g of 3-oxaheptan-1-ol (i.e., the butyl monoether of ethylene glycol) are introduced. 40 g of sodium hydroxide in pellet form are added and the mixture is heated to 120° C. Sodium 3-oxaheptan-1-olate and water are formed, with the latter being removed by distillation.
