The reactions of trialkylsilyltrifluoromethanesulfonic acid esters with four different cyclopent-2-en-1-ones afford the respective cyclopentadienyl silyl ethers, which can be transformed into the respective ferrocenyl silyl ethers in good yields; cleavage of the silyl ethers under basic conditions leads, via hydroxyferrocenes, to ferrocenyl-alkyl ethers.
