TMSOTf-mediated reactions of 1-cyclopropyl-2-arylethanones with allenic esters afford a novel method for the synthesis of dihydrofuro[2,3-h]chromen-2-one derivatives in moderate to good yields. This process is a sequential reaction involving a nucleophilic ring-opening reaction of the cyclopropane by H(2)O, two intermolecular aldol-type reactions and one intramolecular aldol-type reaction, a cyclic transesterification, dehydration, and aromatization mediated by Lewis acid.
