Abstract

A new synthesis of 3-methoxypropanal from glycerol was presented. With this new approach, the conversion of glycerol to 3-methoxypropanal can be effected in moderate yield using catalysts of copper sulfate and polyethylene glycol (PEG).

ACKNOWLEDGMENT

We thank Dr. Xu Zhang of Wuhan University for helpful discussions.
