Abstract

Abstract : Obtained from glycerol, divinylglycol (DVG) is a promising bio‐based building block. Upon hydroformylation of DVG, a very complex mixture of different products is obtained. Unexpectedly, the addition of chloroform at 0 °C on this mixture provokes the selective precipitation of 2, 7‐dioxadecalin‐3, 8‐diol, an interesting bicyclic bis‐hemiacetal.
