Abstract
A semi-continuous process for the manufacture of acetals of chloroacetaldehyde is described. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, chloroacetaldehyde dimethyl acetal is prepared by introducing chlorine and vinyl acetate through separate inlets into the upper opening of a cooled vertical packed column to form an intermediate product. The intermediate flows through the column, and optionally a static mixer, into a cooled batch reactor precharged with an excess of methanol to form the crude acetal product. Isolation and purification of the product is accomplished by known batch-type procedures.
