An efficient method to construct cyclopenta[ c ]chromene skeletons by Lewis acid‐catalyzed intramolecular [3+2] cycloaddition of cyclopropane 1,1‐diesters with alkynes is presented. Two new fused cycles can be formed in one step in moderate to excellent yields (up to 94 %), and the products can be converted into bioactive barbituric acid derivatives ( 1 ) under simple reaction conditions.
