Procedure

Such a mono(chlorohydrin ether) as that of formula V is then mixed with up to an equimolar amount of a bis(chlorohydrin ether) of a polyhydric phenol, and subjected to dehydrochlorination. The materials obtained, described as synthetic high molecular weight products of resinous character, are of a complex nature and generally solids of melting point 43° C. or more. Presumably, if, e.g., phenyl glycidyl ether were used, the product obtained on dehydrochlorination would contain, amongst other compounds, a glycidyl ether of a mono-secondary alcohol formed in the following manner ##STR3##
