Star-shaped polyaromatic ethers coordinated to redox-active cyclopentadienyliron moieties
Communication: This communication is focused on the controlled design of star-shaped aromatic ethers with pendent cyclopentadienyliron moieties. A trimetallic core was prepared, which was then reacted with a number of oligomeric either complexes to give star-shaped polymers with six, nine, twelve and fifteen pendent cationic cyclopentadienyliron moieties. Cyclic voltammetric studies showed reduction of the iron centers between -0.99 and 1.41 V. Thermogravimetric analysis showed that loss of the metallic moieties occurred between 225 and 284degreesC.
