Abstract

Features of the oxidation of hydroxymethylferrocene with molecular oxygen in organic solvent in the presence of weak and strong Broensted acids were studied. The resulting data were compared with published data on ferrocene and hydroxyferrocene oxidation, which made it possible to assess the trend in the oxidation mechanism in going from ferrocene π complexes to their hydroxyferrocene and hydroxymethylferrocene analogs. A conclusion was drawn that each of the ferrocenes reacts with oxygen in quite a specific way.
