Abstract

1. The reactivity of 2-ethoxyacrolein in some polar-addition reactions was investigated. 2. 2-Ethoxyacrolein reacts mainly at the double bond of the vinyl fragment of the molecule in accordance with the Markovnikov rule. This phenomenon is explained by the conjugation of the ether oxygen with the double carbon-carbon bond, and as a result of it 2-ethoxyacrolein differs markedly from otherα,β-unsaturated aldehydes. 3. A number of new derivatives of 2-ethoxyacrolein were synthesized.
