20. The deprotonation of the ferrocenes at 10 °C gave first-order kinetics with cumylcesium for the initial points (i.e., first 4 min of reaction is pseudo first order in the neutral ferrocene). Afterwards, there are complications apparently from decomposition products of the THF and impurities in the cumylcesium.
