Abstract

A synthesis of a C₂ symmetric 1,1′,2,2′-tetrasubstituted ferrocene system is described. The route involves the reduction of ferrocenyl carbonyl compounds which give access to a range of alcohols, alkenes, alkanes, ethers and 2-oxa[3]ferrocenophanes depending on the precise conditions used.
