## Abstract The 1‐(3‐methylazulen‐1‐yl)alkan‐1‐ones, when oxidized with excess 2,3‐dichloro‐5,6‐dicyano‐1,4‐benzoquinone (=4,5‐dichloro‐3,6‐dioxocyclohexa‐1,4‐diene‐1,2‐dicarbonitrile; DDQ) in aqueous acetone in the presence of 1‐(3‐demethylazulen‐1‐yl)alkan‐1‐ones, form the corresponding unsymmetr
## Abstract It is shown that the thermal electrocyclic ring‐closure reaction of 1,2‐di[(__E__)‐prop‐1‐enyl]benzene to yield 2,3‐dimethylnaphthalene (__cf. Scheme 1__) [10] can successfully be applied also to the synthesis of benz[__a__]azulenes (__cf. Schemes 2__ and __3__). Starting materials are
