Abstract

A process, which is harmless with respect to safety, for the production of malonic acid anhydride. For this purpose, diketene is ozonized in the presence of a suitable carbonyl compound. Malonic acid anhydride is a highly reactive intermediate product for the synthesis of numerous active ingredients for, e.g., pharmaceutical agents, pesticides or dyes.
