Ferrocene derivatives containing primary amines and maleimide groups were attached covalently onto Nhydrosuccinimidyl (NHS)-terminated alkanethiol self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) and SAMs of alkanedithiol. The surface coverage and efficiencies of the two cross-linking reactions were evaluated with cyclic voltammetry. All the ferrocene derivatives attached onto the alkanethiol or alkanedithiol ...

Z. Naturforsch. 57 b, 305–308 (2002); received Dezember 10, 2001 Ferrocene, [1]Ferrocenophanes, Fe NMR Fe NMR spectra (11.66 MHz) of the 1,1-diorganosila-[1]ferrocenophanes, [Fe(C5H4)2]SiRR 2 (1) (R = R = Me) and (2) (R = Me, R = Ph), the 1-chloro-1-organosila-[1]ferrocenophanes [Fe(C5H4)2]Si(Cl)R 3 (R =Me) and 4 (R = Ph), and of 1,1-dichlorosila-[1]ferrocenophane, [Fe(C5H4)2]SiCl2 5, were meas...

Ferrocene derivatives are amongst the most promising electroactive organic electrolytes. The bottleneck problems of their application in aqueous redox flow batteries poor solubility and lower potential as well complexity modification methods to solve these problems. In this study, a benzenesulfonic acid group is easily introduced into ferrocene structure by mature diazotization reaction, synthe...

Ferrocene has been investigated as a platform for developing protonmotive electrostatic drivers for molecular motors. When two 3-pyridine groups are substituted to the (rapidly rotating) cyclopentadienyl (Cp) rings of ferrocene, one on each Cp, it is shown that the (Cp) eclipsed, pi-stacked rotameric conformation is preferred both in solution and in the solid state. Upon quaternization of both ...

This mini-review highlights results on nanocatalysis involving various ferrocene-containing macromolecular supports (arene-cored and Pd-nanoparticle-cored dendrimers dendronized polymers) obtained in our research group during the last 15 years. Nanocatalysis with Pd Au nanoparticles stabilized by these metallomacromolecules have shown excellent catalyst efficiency recyclability very low amounts...

The title complex, [Fe2(C5H5)2(C18H20O)], formed by dehydration of 1-ferrocenylbut-3-en-1-ol, crystallizes as a racemic compound. The central C-O-C fragment, in which the C atoms are the chiral centers, is characterized by an angle of 116.26 (10)° at the O atom. One ferrocene group shows a staggered conformation whereas the other shows an eclipsed conformation.

Very efficient stabilization of the photoinduced charge-transfer state was achieved in simple subphthalocyanine-ferrocene dyads, reaching radical pair lifetimes of about 0.2 ms.

We have determined the protein X-ray crystal structures of four organometallic inhibitors in complex with their target enzyme carbonic anhydrase II. The barrel-shaped hydrophobic ferrocene and ruthenocene moieties have provided a structure-based avenue to better occupy the hydrophobic binding patch within the enzyme active site.
