Abstract

1-Acetoxy-1-ferrocenylethane reacts with ZnX₂ to form the corresponding secondary carbocation, which adds to the double bond to enoxysilanes derived from ketones, carboxylic acid esters, or lactones. This C-C bond-forming reaction provides an extremely mild and efficient way of alkylating carbonyl compounds at the α-position to form novel ferrocene derivatives.
