A facile and efficient one-step procedure for the synthesis of bicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-3-one derivatives is described. Two equivalents of dimethyl 1,3-acetonedicarboxylate reacted with 1-aza-1,3-butadienes to afford the products in good to excellent yields (70-80%). The reaction proceeded with similar yields when the imine was replaced by the corresponding α,β-unsaturated aldehyde.
