The Uses of Vinylferrocene
Used in the synthesis of 2-aminomethylferrocenes from vinyl ferrocene and lithium amides.
Definition
ChEBI: Ferrocene substituted on one of the cyclopentadienyl rings by a vinyl group.
Purification Methods
Dissolve vinylferrocene in Et2O, wash it with H2O and brine, dry (Na2SO4), and evaporate to a small volume. Purify it through an Al2O3 (Spence grade H) column by eluting the yellow band with pet ether (b 40-60o). The low melting orange crystals can be sublimed. The tetracyanoethylene adduct crystallises from *C6H6/pentane and has m 137-139o(dec). [Horspool & Sutherland Can J Chem 46 3453 1968, Berger et al.
