ABSTRACT:
The invention is concerned with novel dioxolane derivatives of the formula: ##STR1## in which R.sub.a is hydrogen or (1-4C)alkyl and R.sub.b is (1-4C)alkyl or phenyl optionally bearing a halogeno substituent; their production; and their use for the manufacture of certain known anti-arthritic acids of the formula: ##STR2## and, in particular, those acids in which R.sub.a =R.sub.b =methyl or R.sub.a =ethyl and R.sub.b =phenyl, by a novel reduction process. The preferred reduction procedures involve the use of an alkali metal borohydride or cyanoborohydride in the presence of a noble metal catalyst, or the use of an .alpha.-branched alkyl or cycloalkyl Grignard agent.
The use of the derivatives of formula I avoids the need for potentially toxic reagents and reactive intermediates in the previously known processes for the production of the acids of formula V.
