Abstract

The specification describes a process for the production of a 4-alkoxymethyl-1,3-dioxolan in good yield, in high purity and in a simple manner by reacting an alkyl glycidyl ether with a carbonyl compound in the presence of an acid catalyst. The 4-alkoxymethyl-1,3-dioxolan is useful as an intermediate for the production of an .alpha.-monoalkyl glyceryl ether by hydrolysis.
