Oligomeric ferrocene rings

Abstract: Cyclic oligomers comprising strongly interacting redox-active monomer units represent an unknown, yet highly desirable class of nanoscale materials. Here we describe the synthesis and properties of the first family of molecules belonging to this compound category-differently sized rings comprising only 1,1'-disubstituted ferrocene units (cyclo[n], n = 5-7, 9). Due to the close proximity and connectivity of centres (covalent Cp-Cp linkages; Cp = cyclopentadienyl) solution voltammograms exhibit well-resolved, se… Show more

“…Such bands were recently observed for the MV states of cyclic sexiferrocene 2. With the aim to probe for such IVCT bands, we compared the electronic spectra of 2 , 2 + , 2 2+ , and 2 3+ in the UV/Vis/NIR range.…”
