Abstract
The present invention relates to a process for preparing halo acetals of ethylenic aldehydes by reaction of a halogen cation with enamine followed by a hydrolysis and reaction with an alcohol, a glycol or an orthoformate. These halo acetals are used as intermediate for the synthesis of vitamins A and E. It also relates to a new compound of formula (IV), ##STR1## to a process for preparing it from halo acetals of ethylenic aldehydes by reaction with triethyl phosphate, and to its use for the preparation of retinal by reaction with .beta.-ionylideneacetaldehyde.
