Metal-centered ferrocene clusters from 5-ferrocenylpyrimidine and ferrocenylpyrazine
A series of metal-centered ferrocene compounds has been designed by using 5-ferrocenylpyrimidine (L1) and ferrocenylpyrazine (L2). These ligands, when combined with transition metal salts, produce mixed-metal polynuclear complexes with structural diversity. Reaction of L1 with M(SCN)(2) (M = Ni, Co) produces the pinwheel-like 4:1 complexes (L1)(4).M(SCN)(2), while reactions of L1 and L2 with Cu(NO3)(2) give the 3:1 complex (L1)(3).Cu(NO3)(2) and the 2:1 complex (L2)(2).Cu(NO3)(2), respectively. Reactions of L1 and L2 with M(hfac)(2) (hfac = 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoroacetylacetonate, M = Mn, Ni, Cu, Zn) produce 2:1 complexes (L)(2).M(hfac)(2) with cis and trans configurations, respectively. Crystal structures as well as solid-state electrochemical properties of these redox active complexes were investigated.
