Abstract: A mild and efficient method that could directly prepare alpha-haloacetal acetophenones from various acetophenones with 1,3-dihalo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DBDMH/DCDMH) and ethylene glycol in good yields without catalysts was reported. The effects of SOLVENT*s, 1,3-dihalo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin, and reaction temperature were investigated. Under the optimal condition, most of a-haloacetal acetophenones were obtained in 65-97% yields.
