Popis: Both enantiomers of the title compound are synthesized for the first time in four steps including a [2+2]-photocycloaddition to build up the cyclobutane backbone and a cerium supported reductive permethylation. During the cerium supported process a complete and selective change in the configuration of the cyclobutane ring takes place. The substituents are transformed from the cis - to the trans -geometry.
