The unusual tricyclo[6.4.0.0^4,9]dodecane framework was constructed in eight linear steps in 13% overall yield. An innovative strategy accessing the framework from bicyclo[3.3.1]nonanes was employed. The key steps involve a Robinson annulation, a base induced decarboxylation and epimerization in a single step, and an intramolecular alkylation.
