Photosensitized oxygenation of acyclic 1,3-dienes was found to afford 3,6-dihydro-1,2-dioxins in good yields. Substituted furans can be prepared from the 1,2-dioxins by successive treatment with base and acid. Some furanoid terpenes, i. e., perillene, dendrolasin, neotorreyol, and torreyal were synthesized from β-myrcene based on the above-mentioned new reactions.
