title: Iodocyclization of ethoxyethyl ethers to ynamides: an immediate construction to benzo[b]furans.
abstract: The iodocyclization of ethoxyethyl ethers to ynamides was completed within three seconds. The corresponding benzo[b]furans were obtained in high yields (84%-quant.) under mild conditions.
