2-[(2,5-Dimethoxyphenyl)(ferrocenyl)methyl]-3,6-dimethoxybenzonitrile

The cyano group of ferrocenylacetonitrile migrates to the phenyl ring of an aryne during a tandem addition-rearrangement reaction that yields the title compound, [Fe(C₅H₅)(C₂₃H₂₂NO₄)]. The two cyclopentadienyl rings of the ferrocenyl moiety are in a staggered conformation.
