Four homoallylortho‐vinylaryl ketones (10a‐d) – 1,8‐dienes of sorts – were prepared by several approaches. In the presence of 1–2 mol‐% Grubbs‐II catalyst, they ring‐closed to give 6,7‐dihydrobenzocyclohepten‐5‐ones (11a‐d) in 90–96 % yield. With SeO2the parent compound (11a) delivered benzocyclohepten‐5‐one (13a) and/or selenium‐containing compounds (18–22) but no more than traces of 6,7‐benzotropolone (5a). However,5awas accessible from compound11avia the sodium enolate and allowing it to react with a stream of oxygen (43 % yield). The sodium enolates of the substituted 6,7‐dihydrobenzocyclohepten‐5‐ones11b–dand oxygen underwent analogous 4‐electron oxidations. This furnished the substituted 6,7‐benzotropolones11b‐d. In contrast, the corresponding lithium enolates were inert towards oxygen. The 6,7‐dihydrobenzocyclohepten‐5‐one11dwas also accessed differently, namely by a Grubbs‐II catalyst‐mediated RCM/C=C migration tandem reaction of the allylortho‐allylaryl ketone73– another 1,8‐diene of sorts (90 % yield).
