Abstract

Bisketals of 1,3-cyclobutanedione with monovalent and divalent alcohols as well as processes for their production from 1,3-cyclobutanedione or from 3-acetoxy-2-cyclobuten-1-one contained in the distillation residues of the diketene production. The bisketals are suitable intermediate products for the production of squaric acid, for the production and/or purification of 1,3-cyclobutanedione, or as a stable form for storage or substitute for this unstable dione.
