Synthesis and characterization of symmetrical and unsymmetrical ferrocenyl ligands for use in the preparation of Redox Active Ruthenium Alkylidene Complexes

Oxidation of a ferrocenyl group in conjugation to another metal centre can alter the electron density at that metal centre and lead to a change in overall reactivity of a complex. Herein, the synthesis and characterization of redox active symmetrical and unsymmetrical ferrocenylalkene derivatives is...
