Procedure
Monoimine 2-[1-(2,4,6-trimethylphenylimino)ethyl]-6-acetylpyridine (1, 263 mg, 0.94 mmol) and ferrocenylamine (280 mg, 1.03 mmol) were dissolved in 40 ml of toluene. To this solution, molecular sieves (4 Å) were added. After standing for 16 hours the mixture was filtered. The solvent was removed in vacuo. The residue was recrystallised from ethanol. Yield 180 mg (41%) of mixed diimine 6.
