Individually, ferrocene and photochromic materials have several important attributes and applications. Ferrocene is a promising candidate of stimuliresponsive materials due to its electronic, electrochemical and magnetic properties. On the same lines, photo-sensitive materials are also an important class of stimuli-responsive materials which can be modified according to the needs.Recently, a lot of keen attention has been given to the combination of ferrocene with different photo-sensitive moieties to get novel functional materials. This review illustrates the research advances in the combination of ferrocene-based small molecules, self-assembled monolayers and polymers with photo-responsive compounds and their potential applications.

Metallopolymers with metal functionalities are a unique class of functional materials. Their redox-mediated optoelectronic and catalytic switching capabilities, their outstanding structure formation and separation capabilities have been reported recently. Within this Minireview, the scope and limitations of intriguing ferrocene-containing systems will be discussed. In the first section recent advances in metallopolymer design will be given leading to a plethora of novel metallopolymer architectures. Discussed synthetic pathways comprise controlled and living polymerization protocols as well as surface immobilization strategies. In the following sections, we focus on recent advances and new applications for side-chain and main-chain ferrocene-containing polymers as (i) remote-switchable materials, (ii) smart surfaces, (iii) redox-responsive membranes, and some recent trends in (iv) photonic structures and (v) other optical applications.

“…Polyferrocenylsilanes (PFS), developed by Manners' group and prepared by ring‐opening polymerization (ROP), are by far the most widely developed and well‐studied type of the former category. Metallopolymers of the latter category have been synthesized by various living and controlled polymerization methods including atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer polymerization (RAFT), and ring‐opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) . Fc‐containing dendrimers occupy a special place with specific properties such as the near‐identity of redox potential of iron sandwich systems located at their tether termini .…”

First- and second-generation Percec-type dendronized ferrocenyl norbornene macromonomers containing, respectively, three and nine ferrocenyl termini are synthesized and polymerized by ring-opening metathesis polymerization using Grubbs' third-generation olefin metathesis catalyst with several monomer/catalyst feed ratios between 10 and 50. The rate of polymerization is highly dependent on the generation of the dendronized macromonomers, but all these ring-opening metathesis polymerization reactions are controlled, and near-quantitative monomer conversions are achieved. The numbers of ferrocenyl groups obtained are in agreement with the theoretical ones according to the cyclic voltammetry studies as determined using the Bard-Anson method.
