This novel transformation has been optimized to 30 mol% p-toluenesulfonic acid (p-TSA) in toluene using Dean Stark apparatus, where the aldol condensation, cyclopropyl ring opening followed by cyclization took place in a single-pot operation. The resulting tricyclic compounds are interesting chemotype with natural product resemblance and may find useful applications in the future.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">14</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4.785</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
