<p>Poly(ferrocenylsilane)s containing Si-vinylene unit in the main chain have been synthesized by Mizoroki-Heck reaction of 1,1’-bis(dimethylvinylsilyl)ferrocene (MVFS) and dibromo aryl compounds using palladium diacetate as a catalyst. The alternating copolymers with relatively low molecular weight were obtained in good yields. Cyclic voltammetry of the copolymers in CH<sub>2</sub>Cl<sub>2</sub> solutions showed redox potential derived from the ferrocene units in the copolymers. The voltammograms the copolymers indicated that almost no difference in numbers of electron transfer compared with MVFS. By contrast, diffusion coefficients of the ferrocene units in the copolymers were smaller than that of MVSF. The copolymers showed reversible electrochromism from yellow to blue-green due to the redox of ferrocene units in the main chain by 3V of application.</p>

Ferrocene (FcH) derivatives monosubstituted by palmitoyl (1), hexadecyl (2), 1-adamantoyl (3) or 1-adamantylmethyl (4) groups were sythesized and characterized by NMR, mass and 57Fe Mossbauer spectroscopy. The structure of 1-adamantoylferrocene was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Cyclic voltammetry on gold and glass-like carbon electrodes demonstrated that the compounds can serve as electrochemical standards for special cases since their ferrocene/ferricinium redox potential remains stable and reversible, while the properties such as solubility, diffusion coefficients and surface tension are strongly solvent-dependent.
