Abstract: | Novel π-conjugated donor compounds based on the strong electron-donating ferrocene moiety and dithiafulvalene donors exhibited increased electron donor ability. The ferrocenylketones 4a,b, 5, 8 and 9 were synthesized via described methods, and allowed to react with 2-dimethoxyphosphinyl-1,3-benzodithiole (13) in the presence of n-BuLi at −78°C in dry THF to afford the corresponding ferrocene-dithiafulvalenes 14a,b, 18, 19 and 1,1′-bis(benzo-1,3-dithiol-2-ylidene)ethyl]ferrocene (15). Electrochemical properties of these new donor compounds were studied using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and UV-Vis spectra. CV and absorption spectra of the new compounds were studied in comparison with ferrocene (6) and dibenzo-tetrathiafulvalene DB-TTF 3. Two-electron and three-electron redox behaviors were observed as two waves. The absorption spectra showed a red-shift with a slight increase in the absorption intensities. |
