Technology Process of Butylferrocene

There total 3 articles about Butylferrocene which guide to synthetic route it. The literature collected by LookChem mainly comes from the sharing of users and the free literature resources found by Internet computing technology. We keep the original model of the professional version of literature to make it easier and faster for users to retrieve and use. At the same time, we analyze and calculate the most feasible synthesis route with the highest yield for your reference as below:

synthetic route:

Reference yield: 75.0%

1,1'-bis(butanoyl)ferrocene → 1,1'-di-n-butylferrocenium (31904-29-7,1274-08-4)

Guidance literature:

With NaBH₄/BF₃; In 1,4-dioxane; stirring (5-20 min); excess water addn., extraction (chloroform), extract washing (water), drying, evapn., rectystn. (alcohol) or chromy.;

Reference yield:

butylferrocene → ferrocene (102-54-5,55404-68-7) + 1,1'-di-n-butylferrocenium (31904-29-7,1274-08-4)

Guidance literature:

In dichloromethane; presence of AlCl3, in boiling CH2Cl2;;

Reference yield:

iron (7439-89-6) + spiro[4.4]nona-1,3-diene (766-29-0) → 1,1'-di-n-butylferrocenium (31904-29-7,1274-08-4) + bis(4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindenyl)iron(II) (1272-68-0) + C5H3(CH2)4C5H4C4H9Fe (71021-50-6)

Guidance literature:

spirodiene and iron was evaporated simultaneously at room temp. under vac.; evapd., extrd. with benzene, chromd.;

upstream raw materials:
