The ionic and neutral decomposition of gaseous ferrocene, 1, 1′-dichloroferrocene and 1, 1′, 2, 2′-tetrachloroferrocene, has been investigated via photon and electron induced ionization mass spectroscopy. The thermodynamic cycle incorporating the ionic and neutral fragments of ferrocene has been constructed. Elimination reactions in the decomposition of the dichloroferrocene and tetrachloroferrocenes have been identified.
