Abstract
DFT B3LYP/6-311+G* density functional calculations for a model of the thermal degradation of 1.1'-diacetylferrocene show that at the first stage, redox disproportionation of 1.1'-diacetylferrocene proceeds with traces of water and the formation of unstable coordinatively unsaturated 17-electron compounds. It is established that the decomposition of these compounds under conditions of the dehydration of resin products results in the formation of magnetite.
