Aliphatic primary alcohols, when intercalated in certain ion-exchanged montmorillonites, react preferentially via an intermolecular nucleophilic displacement of water to give high yields of di-(alk-1-yl) ethers, rather than the competitive intramolecular dehydration to alkenes; an essentially similar process yields polymeric material, poly(phenylenemethylene), from benzyl alcohol, but aliphatic secondary
