The reaction of 4‐hydroperoxy‐2,4,6‐trimethylcyclohexa‐2,5‐dienone with acetaldehyde using trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate as catalyst gives 1,1′‐bis[(1,3,5‐trimethyl‐4‐oxo‐2,5‐cyclohexadienyl) peroxy]diethyl ether ( 7 ) in 70% yield. The structure of this unusual acetal was determined by X‐ray analysis.
