A facile method for the synthesis of substituted 3‐(2‐furylidene)‐2‐furanones has been developed using cyclofunctionalization reactions of 2,4‐dialkenyl‐1,3‐dicarbonyl compounds and iodine as electrophile in the presence of Na 2 CO 3 , in refluxing chloroform. Compounds 4 are obtained in modest to good yields and their structural identification was established by 1 H NMR, 1 H COSY, 13 C NMR and 1 H‐ 13 C COSY. A mechanism has been proposed to rationalize the formation of the ylidene furanone.
