Abstract

[reaction: see text] N-Methyl-4-alkoxy-3-alkynylpyridin-2(1H)-ones readily undergo iodine-promoted 5-endo-heteroannulation under mild conditions to 3-iodofuropyridinium triiodide salts in moderate to good yields. The latter may be dealkylated in situ upon exposure to an iodide anion to provide the corresponding 3-iodofuro[2,3-b]pyridin-4(1H)-ones. The same strategy applies to the formation of furo[2,3-b]quinolin-4(9H)-ones.
