The corrole and ferrocene marriage: 5,10,15-triferrocenylcorrolato Cu

Chem Commun (Camb). 2014 Apr 21;50(31):4076-8. doi: 10.1039/c3cc49416k.

Abstract

Two synthetic routes have been defined for the preparation of a 5,10,15-triferrocenylcorrole Cu derivative. This complex has been characterized and the preliminary electrochemical investigation shows a strong interaction among the corrole and meso ferrocenyl substituents. The results obtained suggest that peculiar properties are gained by combining the eccentric characteristics of ferrocenyl substitution with the corrole macrocycle.
