Fused dihydrofurans from the one-pot, three-component reaction of 1,3-cyclohexanedione, iodobenzene diacetate and alkenes

The one-pot, three-component reactions of substituted 1,3-cyclohexanediones, iodobenzene diacetate and alkenes, under photochemical activation, yields fused dihydrofuran derivatives in good yield via the in situ formation of iodonium ylides.
