The authors study the possibility of a selective hydrogenation of different 1,3-dioxacycloalkanes by industrial grade mixtures of diethylaluminum hydride and triethylaluminum. Experiments have shown that by the action of 0.4 mole of diethylaluminum hydride and 0.3 mole of triethylaluminum in 100 g of kerosene, 2-mono- and 2,2-disubstituted 2,3-dioxacycloalkanes selectively transform into the corresponding ethylene glycol monoethers. The PMR spectra of the isolated compounds are given. A Tesla BS-467 spectrometer, hexamethyldisiloxane as internal standard, and CC1/sub 4/ as solvent were used.
