Abstract
A tandem metal-free oxidative radical cyclization of alkynoates is described to synthesize 3-acetonylcoumarins. In the process, a distinctive mechanism, which involves radical addition of 2,4-diones to alkynoates, oxidative 5-exo dearomative spirocyclization and ester migration, is proposed in this paper.
