Abstract
Quantum yields of decomposition have been measured for the photolysis of ferrocene, ruthenocene, nickelocene, cobaltocene, bisbenzenechromium and their respective cations. It was found that while the “18 electron” compounds were photostable, the others, all containing unpaired electrons were not. The results are discussed in terms of the electronic structures of the compounds. The ultra-violet spectra of nickelocenium chloride and cobaltocene were recorded.
