摘要:
A series of {ferrocenyl-indenyl}cyclopentadienyliron complexes with and without a spacer (spacer = -C6H4-, -C=C-, -CH2-) was prepared using a CpFe transfer reaction. All the compounds studied showed two successive one-electron transfers. The Delta E-1/2 values depend upon the spacer in the order: acetylenic > methylene > phenylene. The complex {1-(C5H5FeC5H4)-indenyl} FeCp (1b) was characterized by X-ray diffraction. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
