The terrns "alkanoyl" and "alkanoyloY~y'i, as used throur;~,ollt the .spec ~ication, refer to groups having the formu]a Y-C- and Y-C-O- respectively, wherein Y ls alkyl having 1 to 6 carbon ator.s (i.e., groups having 2 to 7 car~,on atoms).
The com~.ounds of this invention wherein R6 is hydro~en can be prepared by reacting an oxirane compound having the formula II O

~H2)n or~l ORl with a compound having the formula III
