Photochemistry of α-carbonylferrocenes and related compounds

Abstract
Benzoylferrocene photoreacts with water in solvents such as dimethyl sulphoxide and pyridine to yield cyclopentadienyliron benzoate and free cyclopentadiene identified by i.r., u.v., and n.m.r. spectroscopy; a variety of other α-carbonylferrocenes are photoreactive in these solvent systems to give products which may also contain carboxylate groups.
