An efficient domino one-pot strategy via [Cu]-catalyzed intermolecular "cyanation" of o-bromobenzyl alcohols -> in situ intramolecular "nudeophilic attack" -> "hydrolysis" is presented, for the synthesis of isobenzofuran-1(3H)-ones. Significantly, the reaction is successfully carried out under environmentally benign conditions, using water as sole green solvent.
