The concise synthesis of lucidone and methyl lucidone is reported. The key steps include the "one-pot" reduction/rearrangement of dimethyl squarate and the Darzens/ring expansion of the monomethoxyl cyclobutenedione. The synthesis of lucidone was finished in two steps and 46% total yield. And the synthesis of methyl lucidone had been reached in three steps and 43% overall yield.

Key words: lucidone, methyl lucidone, cyclobutenedione, Darsens/ring expansion, concise synthesis
