REDOX-RESPONSIVE CROWN ETHERS CONTAINING A CONJUGATED LINK BETWEEN THE FERROCENE MOIETY AND A BENZO CROWN ETHER

The syntheses of new redox-active crown ethers 8a, 8b, 9a, and 9b containing cis- and trans-conjugated olefinic linkages between the ferrocene redox center and respectively benzo-15-crown-5 and N-phenylaza-15-crown-5 are described. The sodium cation forms 1:1 stoichiometric complexes with the trans...
