Cyclization of ethyl ( E )/( Z )‐[2‐(1‐cyclohexen‐1‐yl)cyclohexylidene]cyanoacetate ( 2 ) in cold concentrated sulfuric acid affords 10‐amino‐1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8‐octahydrophenanthrene‐9‐carboxylic acid ( 4 ) and 3,5,6,7,8,8a‐hexahydro‐3‐oxospiro‐[1 H ‐2‐benzopyran‐1,1′‐cyclohexane]‐4‐carbonitrile ( 5 ). The o ‐amino acid 4 is employed in the synthesis of several 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8‐octahydrophenanthrene derivatives: the carboxylic acid 6 , o ‐hydroxy carboxylic acid 7 , and the amine 8 . The lactone 5 undergoes decarboxylation on heating yielding a mixture of unsaturated nitriles 9 and 10 which are cyclized to the amine 8 .
