Ferrocene-containing

Properties of ferrocene-containing polymers have been improved by inclusion of pyrazole systems in the backbone. The synthesis of (748) was achieved by condensation of bis()3-diketoferrocenes) with aromatic dihydrazines to give polyhydrazones that were later cyclo-dehydrated (B-80MI40408).

We now report a convenient method for the interfacial polycondensation of 1,1 -bis(3-aminoethyl)ferrocene (1) with a variety of diacid chlorides and diisocyanates, leading to ferrocene-containing polyamides and polyureas. In some instances, we have been able to observe film formation at the interface. Moreover, the polymerization reactions can be conveniently conducted at ambient temperatures in contrast to earlier high-temperature organometallic condensation... 

Ferrocene containing condensation polymers have been utilized by us to modify the surfaces of electrodes.Materials of this type that incorporate organo-iron compounds into a polymer matrix, either through chemical bonding or by formation of blends, have the potential of being thermally processed to yield iron oxides. 

One previous synthesis of ferrocene-containing condensation polymers via interfacial methods at room temperature has been reported by Knobloch and Rauscher, who formed low molecular weight polyamides and polyesters by reacting l,l -bis(chloro-formyl)ferrocene with various diamines and diols. Further, Carraher and co-workers have utilized interfacial techniques in the formation of other types of organometallic polymers. 

Ferrocene-containing sulfur ligands have been used in complex formation with zinc. 3-Ferro-cenyl-3-mercaptopropenale and l,l -bis(3-mercaptopropenale)ferrocene (112) form stable complexes as do their Schiff base derivatives with aniline or 1,2-ethylenediamine. The Fen/Fein redox couple shows only minor metal dependence, this is attributed to tetrahedral distortion.884... 

Extensive work has been carried out on microsensors built from electropolymerized nickel porphyrin films.328,329 Films of Prussian blue (Fe4[Fe(CN)6]3) 345 metal-salen complexes (M = Co, Fe, Cu, Mn)346 or the ferrocene-containing Nin-tetraaza[14] annulene (24),347 also exhibit interesting activity for NO electrooxidation and sensing. 

Germanium-bridged [l]ferrocenophanes undergo a number of ring-opening polymerization reactions to yield ferrocene-containing polymers, and the versatility of this interconversion has been reviewed. A -GeMe2-... 

In a systematical study, Golovin et al. investigated a series of metallocene derivatives in terms of their redox potentials, mass transport properties, and chemical and electrochemical stabilities in both electrochemical test cells and commercial-size AA rechargeable cells.Figure 43 shows the complete voltammetric scan of the ferrocene-containing elec-... 

The host-guest interaction of manganese(II) with a range of ferrocene-containing species, which included the dithia derivative (219), has been investigated in acetonitrile. Complexation gave rise to a bathochromic shift of the lowest-energy ferrocene-centered d-d transitions. 

The landmark discovery of ferrocene by Kealy and Paulson in 1951 marked the beginning of modern organometallic chemistry. The first organometallic addition polymer was polyvinyl-ferrocene synthesized by Arimoto and Haven in 1955. While polyvinylferrocene (structure 11.32) had been synthesized it was about another decade until the work of Pittman, Hayes, and George, and Baldwin and Johnson allowed a launch of ferrocene-containing polymers.

Ferrocene contains flat, five-membered rings, similar to benzene. Each ring formally carries one negative charge, so the oxidation slate of Fe, which site between the rings, is +2. This molecule is called a sandwich complex. 

Manners and co-workers have demonstrated that ferrocene-containing silacarbocycles are readily obtained from the reaction of an ansa-ferrocenyl disilane with a number of terminal or activated internal alkynes and butadiene [Eq. (14)].56... 

The electronic and optical properties of such compounds may be expected to respond to external electrical or light stimuli. The NLO properties of a ferrocene containing molecule have been reported (19).
