Abstract

Transition-metal-catalyzed C–H functionalization is an emerging powerful alternative to ortho-lithiation protocols. For ferrocene systems almost exclusively noble-metal catalysts have so far been used. Herein we present the first examples of cobalt-catalyzed ortho-methylations by C–H activation at ferrocenes bearing various ortho-directing groups (ODGs). The cobalt-catalyzed ortho-methylation results in the formation of racemic 1,2-disubstituted ferrocenes in 21–89 % yield. In some cases symmetric 2,5-dimethylated ferrocenes prevailed or even were the only isolated products.
