Abstract

Novel tetracyclic lactone (5a), 9-ethoxycarhonyl-10(10aH)-oxo-5,6,7,8,8a,9-hexahydro-9,10a-anthracenecarbolactone, was obtained in 34.8% yield by oxidative cyclization of diethyl trans-2-benzoylcyclohexylmalonate (4a) with manganese(III) acetate dihydrate in the presence of sodium acetate in acetic acid.
