摘要:
The syntheses of new ferrocene-monosaccharide compounds, 5-ferrocene-glucosamide (4), 5-ferrocene-glucosamido-2'-phosphate (5), and 5'-ferrocene-amido-5'-deoxyadenosine (6), are reported starting from ferrocenoyl hydroxybenzotriazole ester and the corresponding amino sugars. All compounds are investigated spectroscopically. In addition, their redox properties are investigated by cyclic voltarnmetry in aqueous solution. These compounds show a reversible one-electron oxidation. This redox potential in the case of 4 exhibits a significant pH dependence. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
