Abstract A facile synthesis of Pechmann dyes has been accomplished by the reaction substituted N ‐phenacyl‐4‐dimethylaminopyridinium halides with dimethyl maleate in presence DBU. Based on a related 4‐DMAP elimination product and an isolated monolactone intermediate mechanism proposed. The scope this synthetic method is determined availability α‐haloaroyl or heteroaroyl derivatives. DBU=1,8‐diazabicycloundec‐7‐ene, DMAP=4‐dimethylaminopyridine.
