Abstract
An effective route for the synthesis of a variety of 2-methylbenzofurans is reported via DBU catalyzed dehydroiodination of easily accessible 2-iodomethyl-2,3-dihydrobenzofurans. The latter could be easily obtained by water mediated iodocyclization of allyl phenols. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
