Formal [3+2] cycloadditions of the carbene ligand in the new (3-dimethylamino-1-alkoxyalkenylidene)pentacarbonylchromium complexes 5 and 14 both with cyclopropyl substituents in the 3-position, onto alkynes give 5-dimethylamino-3-ethoxycyclopentadienes 6 and 15a-f, the latter along with regioisomers 16a-d, in good yields (55-72%). Treatment of these with hydrochloric acid liberates two carbonyl groups in each of them, and the resulting 5-dimethylaminocyclopent-1-en-3-ones 7 and 17a-c/18a-c, under basic conditions, undergo a cascade of two cyclizations, to yield angularly fused triquinanes 10 (68%) and 23a-c (30-97%). The overall procedure consists of four operational steps and produces cyclopropane-annelated tricyclo[6.3.0.01,5]undecane skeletons from two different alkynes each in 22-47% overall yield.
