Zusammenfassung:1300360 Production of dialkyl hydroxyfuran- 3-ones INTERNATIONAL FLAVORS & FRAGRANCES Inc 19 April 1971 [10 Feb 1970] 21454/71 Heading C2C 2,5 - Dialkyl - 4 - hydroxy - 2[3H] - dihydrofuran-3-ones are obtained by reacting a dihalodiketone of the formula wherein X is halogen and R is alkyl, with an aqueous alkali or alkaline earth metal hydroxide at 75-125‹C. The reaction is suitably effected by refluxing an aqueous mixture of the dihalodiketone and the hydroxide under an inert atmosphere at a pressure of 1-2 atmos. The dihalodiketone starting materials may be prepared by reacting a dialkanoyl with a halogen in the presence of a hydrogen halide, preferably at a temperature of 30-80‹C.
