Influence of Ferrocene on Engine and Vehicle Performance

Contemporary Developments in Ferrocene Chemistry: Physical, Chemical, Biological and Industrial Aspects

“…The application of metallocene-functionalized compounds has become a research topic of growing interest in recent years. Ferrocenes have been used as chemical intermediates, antiknock additives to gasoline, lubricants, and for other uses, but a primary application is related to catalysis [64]. Ferrocene is also currently being investigated as an active pharmacological agent against many notorious diseases like cancer, malaria, and other bacterial infections.…”

Investigation of the Coordination Chemistry of a Bisamidinate Ferrocene Ligand with Cu, Ag, and Au

“…Ever since the discovery of the first metallocene 7 decades ago, ferrocene has played an important role in different fields of applications. 1−9 Besides its use as a suitable standard in cyclic voltammetry, 10 as a fuel additive, 11,12 and others, ferrocene derivatives have caught interest as stable, rigid, and redox-active ligands. 13−19 Because of the large range of possible ring functionalizations, ferrocene poses a versatile ligand scaffold.…”

“…After reaction in THF and crystallization from THF/npentane, copper complex 2 was isolated as orange crystals (yield 21%). Single-crystal diffraction revealed that Cu2 is nearly linearly coordinated by each one nitrogen atom of different amidinate substituents [N3−Cu2−N2 177.64 (11)°] (Figure 3). A rather short distance of 3.1154(6) Å between iron and copper (Cu2) was found.…”

“…Ever since the discovery of the first metallocene 7 decades ago, ferrocene has played an important role in different fields of applications. − Besides its use as a suitable standard in cyclic voltammetry, as a fuel additive, , and others, ferrocene derivatives have caught interest as stable, rigid, and redox-active ligands. − Because of the large range of possible ring functionalizations, ferrocene poses a versatile ligand scaffold. , One very common choice is the introduction of phosphine groups to ferrocene, which, for example, results in bidentate and sometimes even chiral ligands . Depending on the choice of coordination site bound to ferrocene and the metals involved, ferrocene metalloligands may act either as monodentate donors or as multidentate chelating and/or metal bridging ligands. − The rich coordination chemistry of ferrocene metalloligands thus mainly depends on the substituents attached to the cyclopentadienyl rings.…”

Review of Effect of Composite Additives on Performance and Emission Characteristics of Petrol Engine

“…These results indicate that ferrocene decreases the insulation resistance of spark plugs. [2] The research was carried out by S.Babazadeh Shayan, F.Ommi, S.M.Seyedpour, M.Alizade, to study the effect of oxygenate Machado, G., Barros, J., Braga, S., and Braga, C has prepared the paper on influence of Toluene and Iso-Octane on combustion and performance parameters of spark ignition engines. The aim of this paper is to present further results on the effect of individual components and fuel fractions on the combustion and performance parameters of spark ignition engines.…”
