===Lithiation===
Ferrocene reacts readily with [[butyl lithium]] to give 1,1'-dilithioferrocene, which in turn is a versatile [[nucleophile]]. 
This approach isBut reaction of Ferrocene with [[t-BuLi]] produces monolithioferrocene only. <ref>F Rebierea, O Samuela and H.B Kagan "A convenient method for the preparation of monolithioferrocene" Tetrahedron Letters
Volume 31, Issue 22, 1990, Pages 3121-3124. {{DOI|10.1016/S0040-4039(00)94710-5}}</ref> These approaches are especially useful methods to introduce main group functionality, e.g. using S8, chlorophosphines, chlorosilanes. The strained compounds undergo [[ring-opening polymerization]].<ref>David E. Herbert, Ulrich F. J.
