In article number 1902321, Claus Feldmann and co‐workers present the formation of zero‐valent iron nanoparticles (Fe 0 ) by lithium pyridinyl‐driven reduction of FeCl 3 (Fe +III ) in pyridine and their subsequent use as reactive starting material to obtain FeCp * 2 (Fe +II , Cp * : pentamethylcyclopentadienyl). The novel pyridine‐based synthesis of reactive Fe 0 nanoparticles as well as further follow‐up reactions with reactive Fe 0 nanoparticles as precursors are presented.
