===Redox chemistry===
Unlike the majority of hydrocarbons, ferrocene undergoes a one-electron oxidation at a low potential, around 0.5 V ''vs''. a [[saturated calomel electrode]] (SCE). Some [[electron]] rich hydrocarbons (e.g., [[aniline]]) also are oxidized at low potentials, but only irreversibly. Oxidation of ferrocene gives a stable cation called ferrocenium. On a preparative scale, the oxidation is conveniently effected with FeCl<sub>3</sub> to give the blue-colored i(contracted; show full)[[pl:Ferrocen]]
