Through an unexpected CC bond migration, 2(E)‐enals were efficiently prepared highly stereoselectively in moderate to good yields via the sodium iodide/tert‐butyl(dimethyl)silyl chloride (NaI/TBSCl)‐mediated reaction of the easily available 2,3‐allenols. Based on a careful mechanistic study, including control experiments and deuterium‐labeling experiments, an electron‐withdrawing substituent group in the 4 position has been proven to be crucial and a possible mechanism has been proposed.
