Ethylene release occurs to the extent of at least 90% from the two internal methylene groups (C(4), C(5))of 1,7‐octadiene 1 when the diene is subjected to mass spectrometric investigation in the form of its 1 ‐Fe ⊕ complex. This conclusion follows from experiments with partially deuterated samples of 1 (also labeled with 13 C). Equation (a) provides a plausible mechanistic interpretation.
