[2-(Dimethylaminomethyl)ferrocenyl]lithium, (FcN)Li (I), reacts with MCl2 . xTHF to (FcN)2Mn (II), (FcN)2Co (III), Li2[Fe(FcN)2Cl2] (IV) as well as with FeCl3 to (FcN)3Fe (V). In the same way the complex (C5H5)2V(FcN) (VI) was obtained from (C5H5)2VCl. When I is reacted with M(acac)3 (M = Cr, Co) only a partial ligand exchange took place - independently from the molar ratio of the reactants - with formation of (FcN)Cr(acac)2 (VII) and (FcN)Co(acac) (VIII). An intensive characterization of II-VIII was achieved by elementary analysis, determination of molecular weights, IR-, UV-VIS- and H-1-NMR spectra as well as determination of effective magnetic moments.
