A series of benz[a]azulenes reacted with pyridinium hydrobromide perbromide (PHBPB) in hydrous tetrahydrofuran yielding the corresponding benz[a]azulenequinones in moderate yields. The detailed structure of the benz[a]azulenequinone derivative obtained was clarified by single crystal X-ray analysis.
