we know that ethers, such as diethyl ether and tetrahydrofuran, are quite resistant to the action of dilute acids and require hot concentrated HI or HBr for cleavage. However, acetals in which two ether groups are linked to the same carbon undergo hydrolysis readily, even in dilute aqueous acid. How do you account for this marked difference in chemical reactivity toward dilute aqueous acid between ethers and acetals?

Optically pure 2-octyl sulfonate was treated with varying mixtures of water and dioxane, and the optical purity of the resulting product (2-octanol) was found to vary with the ratio of water to dioxane, as shown in the following table (J.

Given that dioxane possesses fairly nucleophilic oxygen atoms, provide a complete mechanism that explains the variation in in the product's optical purity due to changes in solvent composition.
