When the two isomers were heated in refluxing xylene, the cis substrate(2c) rearranged to the trans product[Me 2Si(1-Ph-c-C 6H 10C 5H 3)Fe(CO) 2] 2(3t), while the trans substrate(2t) yielded the cis product(3c), respectively.

• 通过柱层析分离到化合物 2的顺反异构体 2 c和2 t；并分别进行热重排反应 ；发现顺式底物 2 c重排生成反式重排产物 [Me2 Si( c-C6H10 Ph C5H3 ) Fe( CO) 2 ]2( 3 t) ；而反式底物 2 t重排则生成顺式重排产物 3 c.
