Synthesis, electrochemical properties and fungicidal activity of 1,1′-bis(aroyl)ferrocenes and their derivatives
Reaction of functionalized cyclopentadienyl sodium CH3O2CArC(O)CpNa (Ar = aryl and Cp = cyclopentadienyl) with FeCl2 in a 2:1 ratio gives 1,1′‐bis(aroyl)ferrocenes [CH3O2CArC(O)Cp]2Fe in reasonable yields. Upon treatment of these aroyl compounds with NaBH4, the ketone carbonyl is reduced to yield co...

Summary: | Reaction of functionalized cyclopentadienyl sodium CH3O2CArC(O)CpNa (Ar = aryl and Cp = cyclopentadienyl) with FeCl2 in a 2:1 ratio gives 1,1′‐bis(aroyl)ferrocenes [CH3O2CArC(O)Cp]2Fe in reasonable yields. Upon treatment of these aroyl compounds with NaBH4, the ketone carbonyl is reduced to yield compounds [CH3O2CArCH(OH)Cp]2Fe, while with the stronger reductive reagent LiAlH4, diols [HOCH2ArCH(OH)Cp]2Fe are obtained. All new compounds were characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopic analyses. Their electrochemical behavior was investigated by cyclic voltammetry. The structure of [CH3O2CC10H6C(O)Cp]2Fe was further confirmed by single crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis. In addition, the fungicidal activities of these new compounds were also determined in vitro. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
A series of 1,1′‐bis(aroyl)ferrocenes and their derivatives were synthesized, and their electrochemical behavior as well as fungicidal activity investigated. |
