A26. M. Rosenblum, Chemistry of the Iron Group Metallocenes Ferrocene, Rutheno-cene, Osmocene. Wiley (Interscience), New York, 1965. Only vol. 1 published, which is an excellent introduction to the organic chemistry of ferrocene and its two congeners, but unfortunately not yet completed by the appearance of vol. 2. 

These reactions and their extensions have greatly broadened the scope of metallocene chemistry, especially since various other metallocenes also undergo certain of the above ring substitution reactions. A striking example concerns the relative ease of substitution reactions of the iron group metallocenes, namely, ferrocene, ruthenocene (RuCioHio), and osmocene (OsCwHio) (205, 206). 

It is clear that much remains to be learned before the function of the metal atom in the various reactions of the iron group metallocenes may be said to be well-deflned.

Metal to Solvent Charge Transfer Excited States (MSCT). These excited states are due to electronic transitions which induce charge transfer from metal-centered into solvent-based orbitals. MSCT is principally found in the iron group metallocenes in halocarbon solvents and results in the oxidation of the metal complex and reduction of the solvent. For instance, irradiation of Fe(7j -C H )2 dissolved in CCl at...
