Abstract
The conditions for the preparation of acetals with tensioactive properties from gamma- and delta-gluconolactones and dodecanal and tetradecanal were s tudied. The role of the solvent, the catalyst and the influence of sonicati on on the yields (up to 60-80%) were examined, and a mechanistic interpreta tion is formulated.
