title: Deprotonative metallation of ferrocenes using mixed lithium-zinc and lithium-cadmium combinations.
abstract: A mixed lithium-cadmium amide and a combination of lithium and zinc amides were reacted with a range of ferrocenes; deprotonative mono- or dimetallation in general occurred chemoselectively at room temperature, as evidenced by subsequent quenching with iodine.
