Reactions of bis(acetoxymethyl) ether and several of its aryloxy analogues

Displacement of acetoxy groups from bis(acetoxymethyl) ether by a varietyof phenols is demonstrated.The effect of various catalysts of the reaction is documented, and a possible role of the catalyst is discussed.Several (aryloxy)methyl ethers are used for the preparation of (alkylthio)methyl ethers.

Novel ethers, their preparation and use as oxydimethylating agents

A compound having the formula wherein R is alkyl, is prepared by reacting a compound having the formula STR1 wherein R and R' are alkyl with a cyclic polyoxymethylene or a linear polyoxymethylene in a substantially humidity-free environment. The compound is useful as an oxydimethylating agent for organic compounds.
