(contracted; show full)1951, Pauson and Kealy at [[Duquesne University]] reported the reaction of cyclopentadienyl magnesium bromide and [[iron(III) chloride|ferric chloride]] with the goal of oxidatively coupling the diene to prepare [[fulvalene]]. Instead, they obtained a light orange powder of "remarkable stability."<ref>{{cite journal |author = T. J. Kealy, P. L.

<ref>A second group independently discovered ferrocene.  See:  S. A. Miller, J. A. Tebboth, and J. F. Tremaine (1952) "Dicyclopentadienyliron," ''Journal of the Chemical Society'' (London) , pages 632-635.</ref> This stability was accorded to the aromatic character of the negative charged cyclopentadienyls, but the sandwich structure of the η<sup>5</sup> (pentahapto) compound was not recognized by them.
