Synthesis and molecular structures of S-2-FcNHCOC 6 H 4 SH and [M III (OEP)(S-2-FcNHCOC 6 H 4)](Fc= ferrocenyl, M= Fe, Ga): Electrochemical contributions of …
A novel redox-active thiolate ligand having a ferrocene moiety, S-2-FcNHCOC6H4SH (1a), and its porphyrin-thiolate compounds,[MIII (OEP)(S-2-FcNHCOC6H4)](M= Fe (2a), Ga (3a)) were synthesized and characterized by X-ray analysis, spectroscopic and electrochemical measurements. The corresponding 4-substituted derivatives (1b–3b) were also synthesized to estimate the contribution of substituent effects. The formation of intramolecular SH⋯ OC ...
