Abstract

The Friedel-Crafts reactions of ferrocene with dicarboxylic acid
chlorides have been reinvestigated under diacylation conditions. In
the reaction of ferrocene and succinyl chloride only the previously
described compounds 1,4-diferrocenyl-1,4-butanedione (I) and y-
ferocenyl-y-oxobutyric acid1 (II) were isolated. By the action of
ferrocene with adipoyl chloride in addition to the known polymeric
product VIII2 the mono-, and diacylated compounds (VI, VH, XII,
and XV) and their transformation products (IX, X, XIV, and XVI)
were obtained. The structure of the compounds prepared is confirmed
by their IR, UV, 1H-NMR, and mass spectra.
