Abstract cis-2,5-Tetrahydrofurandicarboxylic acid (1) reacts with sulphur tetrafluoride to give comparable amounts of 2,5-bis(trifluoromethyl) tetrahydrofuran (2) and the bicyclic tetrafluoroether, 2,2,4,4-tetrafluoro-3,8-dioxa-bicyclo [3.2.1]octane (3). Cyclisation of cis-2,5-carboxylic groups leading to the tricyclic fluoroethers, exo-3,3,5,5,8,8,9,9-octafluoro-4,10-dioxatricyclo[5.2.1.01(,7)] decane (6) and exo-3,3,5,5,8,8,10,10-octafluoro-4,9,11-trioxatricyclo[5.3.1.0(1,7)] undecane (9) was also found to be the main or equivalent course of the reactions of 3,4-tetrafluoroethano-cis-2,5-tetrahydrofurandicarboxylic acid ( 4) and trans,cis, trans-2,3,4,5-tetrahydrofurantetracarboxylicacid (7); the bis(trifluoromethyl) derivatives, exo-cis-2,4-bis(trifluoromethyl)-6,6,7,7-tetrafluoro-3-oxabicyclo [3.2.0]heptane (5) and exo-cis-2,4-bis(trifluoromethyl) -6,6,8,8-tetrafluoro-3,7-dioxabicyclo [3.3.0]heptane (8) are formed in lower or comparable amounts.
