Conclusions
-
1.
By the method of gas-liquid chromatography the proportions of isomers were determined in the mixtures of nitriles formed in the cyanation of methyl-, ethyl-, and phenyl-ferrocenes. The most reactive position is the position adjacent to the substituent.
-
2.
The alkaline hydrolysis of the isomeric ethyl and phenyl-ferrocenecarbonitriles to amides was investigated. The least reactive isomer is the 1,2-isomer.
