Abstract

Oxidation potentials for ferrocene and a series of mono- (II-
VII) and bridged diferrocenyl derivatives (VIII-XIV) have been
determined by rotating disk electrode voltammetry and cyclic voltammetry
using a platinum electrode in acetonitrile solution. The
diffusion coefficients of monoferrocenyl derivatives, ranging from
(0.74 to 2.38) X 10-5 cm2 s-1, were evaluated. Analysis of the' results
obtained for bridged diferrocenyl derivatives has shown that their
oxidation potentials are sensitive to structural and electronic effects.
