Mesityl 2,6‐xylyl ketone in 89.8% (w/w) sulfuric acid undergoes cleavage to give mesitylenesulfonic acid, xylenesulfonic acid, and carbon dioxide as final products. The reaction has been analyzed in terms of a series of first‐order reactions. Of the two possible reaction paths available it was shown that fission at the mesityl group is responsible for about 98.5% of the overall initial reaction at 25°C.
