摘要

Hydrolysis of the mixture by dilute acetic acid gives nearly quantitative yields of pinacol R& (OH)(HO) CR2. If water alone is used for hydrolysis the pinacol that is formed is rapidly decomposed by the alkali into a mixture of ketone and hydrol, and it is the overlooking of this reaction that deceived previous investigators in their interpretation of the structure of the sodium compounds. Since pinacols are stable to magnesium hydroxide it occurred to us ...
