An attempt was made to prepare acetals by the reaction
of vinyl ethers with ditropyl ether, but this reaction
does not take place. The addition of tropylium salts
(or an acid) (even in catalytic amounts) initiates a
vigorous reaction. Ditropyl ether and vinyl ethyl
ether in anhydrous alcohol form diethylacetal of
cycloheptatrienylacetaldehyde, in good yield. The
same reaction with vinyl butyl ether in anhydrous
n-butyl alcohol yields di(n-butyl)acetal of cyclohepta-
trienylacetaldehyde. Probably an ionic chain reaction
takes place all cases, in which the tropylium cation
serves as a carrier.

It can be assumed that the formation of a carbonium ion
of type (1) is an intermediate stage of reaction, and
that the above ion in nonhydroxylic solvents is converted
into bromother (II); in alcohol, into acetal (III); and
in water, into aldehyde (IV).
