1.When formylferrocene reacts with RMgX, then when R=CH3, C6H5, and CH2C2H5 secondary alcohols are formed, and when R=C2H5 and n-C4H9 ethers are formed.2.With Grignard reagents derived from halogen compounds that already contain silicon formyl-, acetyl-, and benzoyl-ferrocenes form alcohols in high yields.

Summary 1.It was shown that, unlike tert-butylmagnesium chloride, which reacts anomalously with esters, tert-butyllithium reacts normally at a temperature of from -35° to -40° with formation of tertiary alcohol and glycols in high yields.2.The following were synthesized for the first time: 3-tert-butyl-2,2-dimethyl-3-nonanol, 3-terthutyl-2,2-dimethyl-12-tridecen-3-ol, and 3,8-di-tert-butyl-2,2,9,9-tetramethyl-3,8-decanediol.
