Abstract
The photochemical reaction of aldehydes (propionaldehyde and benzaldehyde) and furan have been studied in the liquid phase; two new compounds, oxetanes I and II have easily been produced with a high purity by this photo-reaction. In the case of 2-methylfuran and propionaldehyde (or benzaldehyde), a mixture of oxetanes III and IV (or V and VI) has also been obtained.
