Procedure

19.4 g of n-butyl 2,3-dihydroxyisobutyrate are added to 18.6 g of 2-chloro-5-nitrobenzaldehyde and 0.5 g of p-toluenesulfonic acid in 250 ml of toluene, and the mixture is refluxed for 5 hours under a water separator. After the mixture has been cooled, the solvent is removed and the residue is dried under greatly reduced pressure. 35 g of 3-(5-methyl-5-n-butoxycarbonyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-yl)-4-chloronitrobenzene (oil) are obtained.
