    Abstract: Glyoxal is prepared by oxidizing glycol in the presence of a silver catalyst, with subsequent or partial condensation of glycol, glyoxal, glycol aldehyde, formaldehyde and/or water by treatment with water or aqueous glyoxal solution in fine dispersion, under specific conditions with regard to the temperature and dispersion of the treatment liquid. The glyoxal which can be prepared by the process of the invention is a wrinkle-resist agent, an assistant for increasing the tear strength and elasticity of fiber materials, a tanning agent, a photographic hardener and a valuable starting material for the production of synthetic resins, textile assistants, paper assistants and plastics.

    Abstract: A process for the preparation of the sought-after scent 2,5-dimethyl-4-hydroxy-2,3-dihydrofuran-3-one, and novel intermediates for the preparation of this compound. 2,5-Dimethyl-4-hydroxy-2,3-dihydrofuran-3-one is prepared by first epoxidizing hex-3-ene-2,5-diol in the liquid phase with hydrogen peroxide to give the novel compound 3,4-epoxy-hexane-2,5-diol, which at 40 DEG -280 DEG C. is converted, by means of a catalytic amount of an acid, to the novel compound 2,5-dimethyl-3,4-dihydroxy-tetrahydro-furan. The latter is dehydrogenated by means of oxygen over a silver catalyst or copper catalyst to give the nove compound 2,5-dimethyl-4-hydroxy-tetrahydrofuran-3-one, which is oxidized by means of bismuth oxide, in concentrated acetic acid solution, to give the desired compound 2,5-dimethyl-4-hydroxy-2,3-dihydrofuran-3-one.
