Thermal ring-opening polymerization of hydrocarbon-bridged [2]ferrocenophanes: Synthesis and properties of poly(ferrocenylethylene)s and their charge-transfer polymer salts with tetracyanoethylene
The poly(ferrocenylethylene)s [Fe(η-C5H3RCH2)2](n) 5a and 5b (a: R = H, b: R = Me) have been prepared by thermal ring-opening polymerization of the corresponding strained hydrocarbon-bridged [2]ferrocenophanes [Fe(η-C5-H3RCH2)2] (4a and 4b). An X-ray diffraction study of 4a indicated significant str...
