Abstract
Experimental data is provided in favor of catalytic properties of pota ssium acetate in glycol monoacetate deacetoxylation. The catalytic act of the reaction is believed to involve the attack by an acetate ion o n an ester carbonyl group with generation of an alkoxide ion, from whi ch alkene oxide is formed.
