Abstract
"Quick-step" synthesis: A rapid and highly efficient route to fused polycyclic scaffolds from simple, readily available β-ketoesters and alkynyl aldehydes was developed (see scheme) as a one-pot reaction by combining three fundamental reactions, that is, the Knoevenagel condensation, Nazarov cyclization, and Conia-ene reactions. Piperidinium acetate was found to be a tandem catalyst in these one-pot reactions.
