Process of producing chloroacetals.

摘要

A process of producing a high-pure acyclic or cyclic chloroacetal with a good yield by a simple step of reacting a monochloroacetaldehyde trimer or a monochloacetaldehyde monomer obtained by heating the trimer in the existence of an acid catalyst and a monohydric or dihydric alcohol having from 1 to 5 carbon atoms in the existence of an acid catalyst or a dehydrating agent.
