Condensation of secondary 1,1′-diaminoferrocenes with phosphorus trihalides (PCl 3 or PBr 3 ) yielded either P-halo-1,3-diaza-2-phospha[3]ferrocenophanes or 1,1′-diaminoferrocenediyl-bis(dichlorophosphines), respectively. The latter provide controlled access to both [3]- and [4]ferrocene frameworks....
