Is there any way of oxidizing ferrocene carboxaldehyde to Fc carboxylic acid?
« on: May 16, 2015, 03:41:28 PM »
I have plenty of the first one in my lab, but I need the carboxylic acid, and would be very nice if we don't have to buy it... So, after an evenig of SciFinder searching, I found nothing on this. Does anyone know if this reaction is possible without oxidizing iron/compound decomposition?

Thanks in advance
