Abstract

Polyformals of the formula: RO(CH2O)nR in which R is a cycloalkyl, or an alkyl group and n is an integer greater than 1 are obtained by reacting formaldehyde or its polymers with a dicycloalkyl or a dialkyl formal in the presence of an acid reacting catalyst and then adding a basic substance in an amount at least sufficient to neutralize the catalyst preferably when an equilibrium composition is reached. The reaction is advantageously carried out at 80-100 DEG C. Specified dialkyl and dicycloalkyl formals are methylal, diethyl formal, dicyclohexyl formal, di-isopropyl formal, di-n-propyl formal and dibutyl formal, whilst the formaldehyde reactant may be monomeric or polymeric formaldehyde, e.g. paraformaldehyde, paraformaldehyde hydrate or trioxane. Common inorganic acids, such as sulphuric acid, are specified as acid reacting catalysts. In examples: (1) diisobutyl formal is heated with paraformaldehyde in the presence of sulphuric acid and made basic with sodium methoxide to produce p diisobutoxymethyl ether and tri-(oxymethylene) diisobutyl ether; (2) ethylal is treated as in (1) under pressure to produce diand tri-(oxymethylene) diethyl ethers; (3) methylal-methanol azeotrope and paraformaldehyde are refluxed together in the presence of sulphuric acid and neutralized with caustic soda to produce dimethoxymethyl ether and tri- and tetra-(oxymethylene) dimethyl etheric (4) methylal is treated as in (2); (5) methylal and formaldehyde are refluxed in the presence of sulphuric acid and the product made alkaline to produce dimethoxymethyl ether.
