Abstract
2,2-Disubstituted 3-chloropropionic esters I ##STR1## where R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are each C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 -alkyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.6 -oxaalkyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.6 -alkenyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.6 -oxaalkenyl, aryl or C.sub.7 -C.sub.12 -aralkyl or R.sup.1 -C-R.sup.2 is 5-, 6- or 7-membered ring, R.sup.3 is C.sub.2 -C.sub.6 -oxaalkyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.6 -alkenyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.6 -oxaalkenyl or C.sub.7 -C.sub.12 -aralkyl, are prepared by converting 2,2-disubstituted 3-hydroxypropanals II ##STR2## into the esterdiol III ##STR3## reacting this esterdiol III in the presence of a transesterification catalyst with an alcohol R.sup.3 OH to give the 3-hydroxyester IV ##STR4## reacting the hydroxyester IV with a stoichiometric or greater than stoichiometric amount of the thionyl chloride and thermally decomposing the product to give the chloropropionic ester I.
