TY - JOUR AU - Sekine, Kiyoharu AB - The chemical structure of C20H18O3 (I) which is a crystalline product obtained from the acidic condensation of acetophenone with formaldehyde has been established as 1-benzoyl-4-methylene-5-phenyl-6,8-dioxacyclo[3,2,1]octane. This compound is identical with the product, C20H18O3, isolated by Beets and Heeringa from the Prins reaction of phenylacetylene. The formation mechanism has also been proposed.
