A photoinduced direct oxidative annulation of 1-aryl-2-(furan/thiophen-2-yl)butane-1,3-diones and ethyl-2-(furan-2-yl)-3-oxo-3-(aryl-2-yl)propanoates in EtOH without the need for any transition metals and oxidants provided access to highly functionalized polyheterocyclic 1-(5-hydroxynaphtho[2,1-b]furan-4-yl)ethanones and 1-(5-hydroxyfuran/thieno/pyrrolo[3,2-e]benzofuran-4-yl)ethanones. The phenomenon of excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) was observed for both 1-(5-hydroxynaphtho[2,1-b]furan-4-yl)ethanone and 1-(5-hydroxy furan/thieno/pyrrolo[3,2-e]benzofuran-4-yl)ethanone analogues.
