Abstract
A reaction was studied between iron dichloride solvate and pyridine activated cyclopentadiene in anhydrous 2-propanol. We showed that pyridine hydrochloride formed in the course of this reaction can be easily separated from the target product (ferrocene) and recycled after neutralization with sodium isopropoxide, which imparts the preparative value to the studied reaction.
