Mechanism of the oxidation of 1-(ferrocenyl)-ethanone/ethanol by dicyanobis(phenanthroline)iron(III)

This study highlights that dicyanobis(phenanthroline)iron(III); [FeIII(phen)2(CN)2]+ oxidises 1-ferrocenylethanone; [CpFeIICpCOMe], and 1-ferrocenylethanol; [CpFeIICpCHOHMe] through a complex mechanism. The kinetic data suggest that the reaction(s) whilst undergoing completion passed through three s...
