N,N-Dimethylaminomethylferrocene
N,N-Dimethylaminomethylferrocene is the dimethylaminomethyl derivative of ferrocene, (C5H5)Fe(C5H4CH2N(CH3)2. It is an air-stable, dark-orange syrup that is soluble in common organic solvents. The compound is prepared by the reaction of ferrocene with formaldehyde and dimethylamine:[1]
- (C5H5)2Fe + CH2O + HN(CH3)2 → (C5H5)Fe(C5H4CH2N(CH3)2 + H2O

It is a precursor to prototypes of ferrocene-containing redox sensors[2] and diverse ligands.[3]
The amine can be quaternized,[4] which provides access to many derivatives.[5]
