Treatment of gamma-monosubstituted allenic esters with N-bromosuccinimide in water yields 5-alkyl-4-bromo-2(5H)-furanones, that can be transformed into 5-alkylidene-4-bromo-2(5H)-furanones in good overall yields. Starting with a simple allenic ester these transformations have been applied to a new synthesis of fimbrolide (1a), acetoxyfimbrolide (1c), and bromobeckerelide (2a).
