Abstract

1,1′-Diacetylferrocene was condensed with aromatic aldehydes without solvent in the presence of solid NaOH. Diacetylferrocene can give good yields of mono- or diene with either one or two molecules of a wide range of aldehydes depending only on the stoichiometry. Cyclization to ferrocenphane does not occur in this condition.
