Abstract
4'-Ferrocenyl-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine(Fctrpy) has been prepared from f errocene carboxaldehyde and 2-acetylpyridine. A single crystal X-rav s tructure analysis indicates typical bond distances and angles with nea rly coplanar aromatic rings. The angle between the cyclopentadienyl ri ng of the ferrocene moiety and the central pyridyl ring of the terpyri dine is 19.2 Ruthenium complexes, Ru(Fctrpy)22+ and Ru(trpy) (Fctrpy)2 + (trpy = 2,2': 6',2''-terpyridine) have been prepared and characteriz ed electrochemically and spectrophotometrically.
