Aluminium chloride promoted reaction of 2,5-dimethylfuran with ethyl cyanoformate affords, depending on the experimental conditions, cis and trans ethyl 5-cyano-2,5-dimethyl-2,5-dihydrofuran-2-carboxylates, 3 and 4, ethyl 2,5-dimethylfuran-3-carboxylate 5, 4,8-dicyano-1,2,4,8-tetramethyl-3,9-dioxatricyclo-2,6>decane 6, and ethyl 3-(2,5-dimethyl-3-furyl)-5-cyano-2,5-dimethyltetrahydrofuran-2-carboxylate 7.Structures were elucidated from spectral evidence and chemical transformations.
