Studies on the Mechanism of Rearrangement Reaction of 2-Phenyl-4-bromotropone to 2-Phenylbenzoic Acid

The reaction of tropone and potassium hydroxide in the presence of potassium ferricyanide gave tropolone, salicylaldehyde, and p-hydroxybenzaldehyde, while in the presence of the copper ammine complex it afforded 2-aminotropone and salicylonitrile. Similarly, when tropone was reacted with aqueous ammonia, methylamine, or dimethylamine, 2-aminotropone and its N-methyl derivatives were formed. The reaction of 2-phenyltropone with ammonia and methylamine, and the reaction of 2-α-naphthyltropone and 4-bromo-2-phenyltropone with methylamine in the presence of copper salt, also afforded 2-aminotropone derivatives and/or salicylaldehyde derivatives.
