Abstract

1. Ferrocenecarbonitrile was converted into ferrocenecarboxylic acid, its amide, and its ethyl ester in good yields. The nitrile was reduced to ferrocenemethylamine and to ferrocenecarboxaldehyde. 2. 1,1′-Ferrocenedicarbonitrile was hydrolyzed to the ferrocenedicarboxylic acid. 3. Ferrocenecarbonitriles are less reactive than nitriles of the benzene series.
