In view to the synthesis of pentamethylcyclopentadienyl-substituted methane derivatives ("pentamethylcyclopentadienyl-carbon compounds") reactions of (pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)lithium with halomethans, formates, and corbon dioxide were investigated.While treatment with tri- and tetrahalomethanes leads to benzene derivatives via molecular rearrangement, reactions with formates and carbon dioxide yield pentamethylcyclopentadienyl-substituted methane derivatives.Attempts to prepare disubstituted species show the formation of by-products only.
