Formaldehyde-1,1″-(phenylphosphinidenesulfide)bis[(2<i>S</i>)-2-[(1<i>R</i>)-1-(methylamino)-ethyl]]ferrocene-aminal

In the course of an ongoing synthetic project, we observed an unprecedented reactivity of <i>N</i>-methyl groups in bis(<i>N</i>,<i>N</i>-dimethylaminoethylferrocenyl)phenylphosphinesulfide upon treatment with manganese dioxide (MnO<sub>2</sub>). The i...
