## Abstract Irradiation of the dihydrooxepine monoester (+)β4 gives the bridged bicyclobutane (+)β5 in 77% yield. On the other hand, the corresponding diester 1 yields the cyclobutene 2. Possible explanations for this differing behaviour are discussed.

Abstract
The resolution of the earlier reported racemic bridged methyl deoxyfuranosides 1 and 3 was achieved via fractional crystallization of the ephedrinium salts 2 or by column chromatography of the camphanoates 5. The absolute configurations of 1 and 3 were established by Xβray structural analysis of the (S)βΞ±βnaphthylethylammonium carboxylate (+)β4 and by correlation with the other enantiomerically pure compounds of this type. (+)β3 was converted into the 2,5βbridged altrose derivative (+)β8.

Treatment of the bridged methyl furanosides 1, 3 and 5 with dilute acid furnishes the corresponding deoxyfuranose derivatives 2, 4 and 6. The trans-substitution pattern of the tetrahydrofuran ring was established by X-ray structural analysis of 2 and by comparison of the 1 H-NMR spectra. A new reso-
## Abstract An improved sonochemical procedure for the synthesis of dimethyl [6]paracyclophaneβ8,9βdicarboxylate (2a) on a 10βg scale is described. The title compound 2d was synthesized from 2a in three steps. Irradiation of 2d yielded the Dewar isomer 3. In solution, the reaction enthalpy for the
