Vinylferrocene is the organometallic compound with the formula (C5H5)Fe(C5H4CH=CH2). It is a derivative of ferrocene, with a vinyl group attached to one cyclopentadienyl ligand. As the ferrocene analogue of styrene, it is the precursor to some polyferrocenes.[1] It is an orange, air-stable oily solid that is soluble in nonpolar organic solvents.

Vinylferrocene can be prepared by the dehydration of α-hydroxylethylferrocene, which is obtained from acetylferrocene.[2] It can also be made by a Wittig reaction of ferrocenecarboxaldehyde.[3]
