Abstract

Novel alkyne-bridged ferrocenophanes [fc{CO₂(CH₂)_nC≡}₂] (2a: n = 2; 2b: n = 3) were synthesized from the corresponding terminal diacetylenic ferrocenes [fc{CO₂(CH₂)_nC≡CH}₂] (1a: n = 2; 1b: n = 3) through ring-closing alkyne metathesis (RCAM) utilizing the highly effective molybdenum catalyst [MesC≡Mo{OC(CF₃)₂CH₃}₃] (MoF6; Mes = 2,4,6-trimethylphenyl). The metathesis reaction occurs in short time with high yields whilst giving full conversion of the terminal alkynes. Furthermore, the solvent dependant reactivity of 2a towards Ag(SbF₆) is investigated, leading to oxidation and formation of the ferrocenium hexafluoroantimonate 4 in dichloromethane, whereas the silver(I) coordination polymer 5 was isolated from THF solution.

Keywords: Alkyne metathesis; terminal alkynes; ferrocene; molybdenum; homogeneous catalysis
