Synthesis and structural characterization of the bitopic ferrocene-based tris(pyrazolyl)methane ligand Fe[C5H4CH2OCH2C(pz)3]2 (pz = pyrazolyl ring)

Synthesis of 1,1′-ferrocene bis(carboxypyrazole) compounds and displacement of the pyrazole ligands

“…Studies of this compound led to the preparation of numerous related diphosphorus chiral compounds that can be used in asymmetric transformations [3,4]. Related ferrocene compounds have also been prepared using ligands with appended N-heterocyclic aromatic compounds, such as imidazoles, pyridines and triazoles -either to prepare chelating ligands, to interact with chemical species for the purpose of developing sensors, to test for cytotoxicity, or to create coordination polymers or peptide conjugates [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12].…”
