Ferrocene derivatives. Part XV. New routes to symmetrically disubstituted ferrocenes
Abstract
The dimethiodides of 1,1′-bis-(N,N-dimethylaminomethyl)- and 1,1′-bis-(α-N,N-dimethylaminoethyl)-ferrocene have been converted into a series of symmetrically disubstituted ferrocenes. The direct tritylation and bis-aminomethylation of ferrocene have been achieved.
