We define certain extensions of affine Weyl groups (distinct from these considered by K. Saito [S1] in the theory of extended affine root systems), prove an analogue of Chevalley Theorem for their invariants, and construct a Frobenius structure on their orbit spaces. This produces solutions $F(t_1, …, t_n)$ of WDVV equations of associativity polynomial in $t_1, …, t_n-1$, exp $t_n$.
