This communication outlines the development of a novel, general synthetic route to substituted α-tetralones 5, their subsequent conversion to the α,β-unsaturated ketones 11, and an improved, one-step transformation of 11 to the tricyclic title compounds 1.Thus, substituted derivatives of 1 can be prepared in six steps from simple benzaldehydes, or, in three steps from more readily available α-tetralones.
