The yields of 2-phenyl-1,3-dioxolan obtained from phenylmagnesium bromide and 2-alkoxy-1,3-dioxolans in which the type Men-O increase as the value of n proceeds along the series 4,3,1,2.Several Grignard reagents(including phenylmagnesium bromide) react with the 2-alkoxy-1,3-dioxolan in which n=2 to give the expected 2-substituted-1,3-dioxolans, whose yields are considerably higher than those of the diethyl acetals obtained from the corresponding reation with ethyl ortoformate.
