Abstract
By using Marukasol, neopentyl alcohol and sec-butyl ethyl ether have been obtained in good yields with easy operations. Thus, neopentyl alcohol was obtained from tert-butylmagnesium chloride and paraformaldehyde in 76% isolated yield with >99% purity using Marukasol as an effective extraction solvent. On the other hand, sec-butyl ethyl ether was obtained from sodium sec-butoxide with ethyl iodide in Marukasol in 67% yield with >99% purity.
