A reaction involving the use of acetylacetone/methyl acetoacetate and Morita–Baylis–Hillman acetates for the efficient, one‐pot, metal‐free synthesis of 9,10‐dihydroacridines at room temperature was developed. The cascade of reactions involved sequential S N 2′–S N Ar reactions, elimination, and reduction through ketene generation and hydride transfer. Evidence for hydride shift via a ketene intermediate was also discussed.
