An efficient synthetic procedure for the preparation of fused 2,3-dihydrofuran derivatives was developed with the assistance of pyridinium ylide. A sequential one-pot, two-step tandem reaction starting from pyridine, aromatic aldehyde, dimedone, or 4-hydroxycoumarin and alpha-phenacyl bromide or p-nitrobenzyl bromide with triethylamine as catalyst proceeded smoothly in acetonitrile. (1)H NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal analysis demonstrated that the obtained 2,3-dihydrofurans are trans isomers.
