Notes

Abstract:
The synthesis of Mono acetylferrocene [Fe(C5H4COCH3)(C5H5)]prepared by the refluxingofa mixture of Ferrocene [C10H10Fe], acetic anhydride [C4H6O3], and 85% Phosphoric acid [H3PO4 ]. The collected product was worked up and separated from the water layer to obtain the organic layer. The product was later investigated to see if it contained acetylferrocene by TLC, UV-Vis, IR, and electrochemistry. Then this was refined to remove all impurities and collect pure acetylferrocene. Another result that was observed was the attempt to synthesize 1,1’ Diacetylferrocene [Fe(C5H4COCH3)(C5H5)] from ferrocene following the same steps but with the substitution of phosphoric acid for aluminum chloride [AlCl3]. In the process multiple techniques were also learned to identify these compounds and differentiate them from each other.
