Abstract

The reaction of 1,1′-ferrocene-bis(methylenepyridinium) with 1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane-5,12-dione followed by reduction of the product with LiAlH4 results in a ferrocene bridged cyclam, which is a very efficient redox-switch for transition metal ions due to the short iron-to-metal ion distances.
