The reactions of sodium methoxide and isopropoxide with dimethyl and ethylene sulphites have been investigated. The acid- and base-catalysed and thermal exchange reactions between methanol and ethylene sulphite and di-isopropyl sulphite have also been studied. The concurrent occurrence of nucelophilic substitution and transesterification in the presence of alkoxide is discussed.
