Fihri et al 44 Potential uses of ferrocenylpyridines Schiff bases includes synthesis of materials for usage in electrochemical sensors, 45 homogenous catalysis, 46 cytotoxic agents, 16 antimicrobial compounds, [47][48][49] antiparasitic, 50 liquid crystals, 51 non-linear optical materials, 52 luminescent systems, 53 as well as coordination of a variety of metal centres to yield novel bimetallic complexes with fascinating architectures, 54,55 organometallic polymers 56 and conducting polymers. 57 In view of the aforementioned potential applications of ferrocenylpyridines and ferrocene derived Schiff bases, we have prepared a series of novel mono-substituted ferrocenyl-N-(pyridinylmethylene)anilines Schiff bases and their corresponding ferrocenyl-N-(pyridinylmethyl)anilines secondary amines.…”
