What is Column Chromatography of Ferrocene about?

Column chromatography was used to separate two compounds, acetylferrocene and ferrocene, from a solution. Hexane was used as the initial mobile phase to elute ferrocene due to its nonpolar nature. A 50/50 hexane/butyl methyl ether mobile phase was then used to separate the more polar acetylferrocene. Thin layer chromatography further analyzed the compounds, finding that the nonpolar ferrocene migrated faster than the polar acetylferrocene in a toluene/ethanol mobile phase, confirming the separation.
