A strategy for in situ generation of furan‐based ortho ‐quinodimethanes ( o ‐QDMs) by the gold(I)‐mediated dehydrogenative heterocyclization of 2‐(1‐alkynyl)‐2‐alken‐1‐ones in the presence of pyridine N ‐oxide under mild reaction conditions was developed. These in situ furan‐based o ‐QDMs were trapped by electron‐deficient olefins and alkynes, thus furnishing various 2,3‐furan‐fused carbocycles in good yields with high diastereo‐ and regioselectivities.
