A Pt(II)-catalyzed intramolecular chemo- and regioselective pentannulation/long-range 1,5-acyl migration reaction is described. This cascade cycloisomerization protocol produces a wide variety of benzofulvene diketones in good to excellent yields with exclusively the Z configuration of the exocyclic double bond of the final product. The (18)O isotope experiment together with (13)C NMR, HRMS, and HMBC analyses confirmed an interesting long-range acyl rearrangement process in this transformation.
