1,3-Di(Ferrocenylmethyl)Imidazolium and 1-Ferrocenylmethyl-3-Alkylimidazolium Salts: A High Yield and Facile Synthesis

2-(3-Chlorophenyl)-1-ferrocenylmethyl-1H-1,3-benzimidazole: an electroactive agent for anion sensor and malarial parasite studies

“…Recently, benzimidazole systems have attracted our considerable attention in synthetic and applied biological research (Howarth et al, 2000;Thomas et al, 2000;Howarth & Hanlon, 2001). Compound (I), depicted in Fig.…”

Synthesis of a new bidentate ferrocenyl N-heterocyclic carbene ligand precursor and the palladium (II) complex trans-[PdCl2(C∧fc∧C)], where (C∧fc∧C)=1,1′-di-tert-butyl-3,3′-(1,1′-dimethyleneferrocenyl)-diimidazol-2-ylidene

“…1(a). This ferrocene imidazolium salt has been subsequently shown to act as an anion receptor [17,18]. Similarly, the general structure of the ferrocene substituted imidazolium salt has also been used to prepare chiral carbene ligands [19][20][21], Fig.…”

Sterically Hindered N‐Heterocyclic Salts Utilized as Antimicrobial Agents

“…Isolated 5 was successfully coupled to imidazoles 1 – 4 via the procedure of Howarth et al . , to successfully yield the desired neutral ferrocenylmethyl‐4,5‐arylimidazoles 6 – 9 , which were positively identified by spectroscopic analysis. The 1 H‐NMR data were all standard with characteristic proton signals ascribable to imidazole (C2‐H), methylene linker (CH 2 ), and the ferrocenyl (C 5 H 5 ) moieties confirming isolation of the N ‐functionalized ferrocenylmethyl‐4,5‐arylimidazoles.…”
