A facile synthesis of a series of novel bromo‐, arylazo‐, and heterocyclic fused troponoid compounds containing 1,3‐benzodioxole system is described. The 7‐bromo‐, 5,7‐dibromo‐, and 5‐arylazo‐substituted 3‐[(2 E )‐3‐(1,3‐benzodioxol‐5‐yl)prop‐2‐enoyl]tropolones ( 2 , 3 , and 5 , 6 , 7 ) were obtained by direct bromination or azo‐coupling reactions of 3‐[(2 E )‐3‐(1,3‐benzodioxol‐5‐yl)prop‐ 2‐enoyl]tropolone ( 1 ) with bromine, and diazonium salts of aniline derivatives, respectively. 3‐[(2 E )‐3‐(1,3‐Benzodioxol‐5‐yl)prop‐2‐enoyl]‐5‐bromotropolone ( 4 ) was obtained from 3‐acetyl‐5‐bromotropolone via one‐pot aldol dehydration reaction with piperonal. Tropolones 2, 3 , and 4 were subjected to nucleophilic cyclization with bifunctional hydroxylamine hydrochloride and phenylhydrazine hydrochloride to give the corresponding isoxazolo‐ and pyrazolo‐fused tropones ( 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 ), respectively.
