Abstract Nitration of 2‐bromo or 2‐chlorotropone gave a new compound, 2,7‐dinitrotropone: The halegen atom on the 2‐position was displaced by the nitro group through an electrophilic substitution reaction. Nitration of 3,5,7‐tribromotropolone gave 3,7‐dibromo‐5‐nitropolone: the nitro group again displaced the bromine atom at position 5.
