3‐Nitrochromone ( 1 ) reacts with a series of nucleophiles by Michael addition followed by intramolecular condensation to yield pyrrolyl ( 2 ), phenyl ( 3 ), pyridyl ( 4 ), pyrido ( 5,6 ), pyrimidyl ( 7 ) and pyrazolyl ( 8 ) nitro derivatives. The reactions proceed under basic catalysis in 39–78% yields. Conversion of 4 to 3,4‐dihydrobenzofuro[3,2‐ b ]quinol‐1‐(2H)one ( 12 ) is also described. Carbon‐13 data for 2, 5, 6 and 8 are discussed. The one bond C,H coupling constants in the nitropyridines are also reported and used as an analytical tool.
