The reaction of 3-alkynyl-4-methoxycoumarins with molecular iodine in chlorinated solvents allows access to 3-iodofurochromones in good to excellent yields as the result of a iodocyclization-demethylation process. Competitive diiodination of the coumarin acetylene moiety could be eliminated by simply performing the reactions in refluxing 1,2-dichloroethane, owing to the thermal instability of the resulting (E)-1,2-diiodoethenylcoumarins.
